I've been busier than a one-legged man in a butt-kicking contest this week. My coworker's grandmother passed away, so he's been out much of the week, leaving me to tackle the classroom projectors, which have all conspired to break down at the same time. Meanwhile, I'm trying to get everything organized for the LAN party I'm hosting at my house tomorrow night. We're going to play a lot of Age of Mythology starting at 1:00 p.m. on Saturday, and quitting when our eyes start bleeding. Oh, and I have to work tonight at Software, Etc. while managing to get everything taken care of for the TiVo and iBook I put up for auction. At least the TiVo sold to a professor here on campus, so I don't have to ship it anywhere.

After being told that I should work for TiVo time and time again, I finally decided to make a TiVo Evangelism page, where I could refer friends and family who wanted some more information about the device, without having to endure my infomercial imitation time and time again. If you've got a busy person on your Christmas list who hates missing their favorite shows, think about getting them a TiVo this year.
