A Tivo is wonderful software.
Really easy to use.
I had Tivo when I had DirecTV.

My new house has cable and I have a Scientific Atlanta / Cisco DVR from the cable company which isn’t nearly as user friendly.

just run the wire down the fenceline and jump up into trees when you have to cross a driveway or road.

I have bypassed the router and plugged the ethernet cable direct to the Mac from the modem and rebooted and it seems to work but... old what’s her name is mumbling about a work slow down and pickets on the sidewalk.

Sounds like router then. When I have problems with mine, it won’t connect at all.

We’ve got the 500GB HD Viper 722 receiver (Dish Network) DVR. We love it...duel turner for two TV’s. Haven’t come close to filling it up but I got the wife a 1 TB external Hard-Drive for Christmas so she can record those “how to murder your husband and get away with it” movies she watches in her down time.

I don’t mind a delay of a few hours to watch a race but it’ll be 2 days before I get back home..too long.

Did you hear about Michael Annett

MOORESVILLE, N.C. — State DMV records show a NASCAR Nationwide Series driver charged with DWI, texting while driving and resisting police was involved in a crash seven months ago and used a similar excuse.

Police say Nationwide driver Michael Annett was four times the legal blood alcohol limit when they stopped him after a crash Sunday.

Investigators say Annett ate breath mints to hide the smell and told them texting is why he couldn’t stop in time.

“On the cell phone” and “could not stop in time” are the same words used on a DMV crash report with Michael Annett’s name on it from July, 2010 on the Brookshire Freeway near Graham Street in Charlotte.

It says Annett rear-ended a car, then that car rear-ended the car in front of it.

The sad fact about that is that Rusty Wallace Racing << yes them, will allow him to race. Oddly Nascar has been silent. I guess he can race without a real drivers license.

Yes, we had ice, sleet and snow dusting this AM - horrible wind yesterday, hard freeze again tonight. Hoping my pipes get through this.

Hadn’t heard about the previous incident involving Annett. Dude has a problem.

Keep the COLD water running, a trickle will do, to prevent your pipes from freezing. Snow has melted at this house w/lows in single digits but highs might hit 50 tomorrow. Forecast is ucky for this area next week.

Had ice for a while, has warmed up some and it’s mostly gone.

Hopefully I can get home today. a couple of bridges and overpasses that might be closed and no way around. :(
