I was planning to drive the Porsche today but woke up to 2 inches of snow. What is with the wacky weather this winter. Snow in late February is not something that happens in Washington much.
On the drive in the Sentra did just fine. It was funny to see the trucks and SUVs spun [...]
The TiVo has been great. We’ve had no problems with programs not recording. The only annoyance with the TiVo has been no 30 second skip like our old DVR. After a quick search online I found out the TiVo has Easter Egg to enable a 30 second skip. You can enable the 30 second skip [...]

I took back our Comcast HD DVR this weekend and got an HD TiVo. We hadn’t had the Comcast DVR very long but we quickly figured out the DVR was crap. It failed to record new episodes of a show we setup to record all new episodes in the series. I tried to set it [...]
