2/26/2012: TiVo

I've often commented that TiVo is the greatest invention in the history of man kind, and that includes the TV (which without there really wouldn't be a TiVo). And the wheel? Pffft... that's not an invention, that's just somebody noticing a log rolling down a hill and thinking "That would make carrying rocks much easier."

Housed in the top compartment of my Anderson Media Console, TiVo has completely changed the way I watch TV. I never watch anything when it's ON, that drives me crazy.

I think Ted and Marshal on How I Met Your Mother said it best:

Marshall: But just to make sure it records, maybe we should bow our heads and say a quiet prayer to the TiVo gods.

Ted: Almighty TiVo, We thank you for all the gifts you have given us. The power to freeze live TV to go take a leak is nothing short of god-like. And let's not forget fast-forwarding through commercials. It seems greedy to ask anything more from you, o magic box, but if you malfunction and miss the Super Bowl, we will destroy you in the alley with baseball bats.

Marshall and Ted: Amen.

ALL HAIL TIVO!!!
