i love technology, volume 279

OK--do all my blogging friends have TiVo or a DVR? Absolutely essential. I mean, there is no way that you can see all the amazing things that are happening on tv without it. Again..the threshold of what I can't live without has been raised. Just like my blackberry, OnStar, my iPod ADT and the list goes on....

Anywho, I was at a sales/marketing training this past week and the very, very famous man speaking to us said a lot of powerful things in the 8+ hours I was there...but one particular thing stood out and I'll paraphrase that "self-made millionaires all worked very hard when they were new....and poor people watch TV all the time".

Such a good point. The competition isn't sitting around watching a lot of TV. Hmmmm...

So I sat their and smugly thought that I had the TV situation on lock down...all my shows are recorded..(sometimes two at a time!) and then I can watch them after hours..between 9p and midnight. And truly...there are only a few to record. Gossip Girl, Dallas Cowboys Cheerleaders, Dr 90210, Lipstick Jungle, Law and Order:SVU, Dirty Sexy Money, The Office and Entourage of course..

Oh snap.

That is more than I thought. And I am dangerously close to the edge of being a "TV person". (umm, over the edge already?)

And they are all like completely silly shows too. Hmmm...I think that relaxing and putting the brain in neutral is a good thing for stress relief every so often, but perhaps this is too much?

Is 'TV person' only a bunny hop away from 'couch potato'...

Oh lordy...too heavy to contemplate this late at night. I will take a stab at the DVR list in the morning...

Night night sweet people!

news you can use

Ummm...a really nice way to start the morning is Fox News and I love Fox and Friends. BUT if you have the luxury of working from home (or have the tv on at work--an even bigger luxury!!!) then you simply must keep it tuned in to America's Newsroom that starts at 9am.

Is Bill Hemmer really the best reason to watch? Yes. Yes, is the answer. Major fan club over here. We need Charlie to marry him...he is a few years her senior...but hey, so what!

Let me give a shout out for Megyn Kelly too!! We want to be her. On most days. She is beautiful and brilliant. Plus, she's refreshingly light hearted.

That's all for now. 11 days till the election and counting!!

UPDATE: Bill Hemmer isn't on today!!! Booohisssss.... I think it's because he's traveling back from Iraq. Did you all see the amazing progress and good news he was reporting all this week?
