Merry Yule

Just a quick post to say Merry Christmas.

The wife loves her NetBook (A Samsung NC10) and it runs Windows 7 great, only one driver that’s an issue and that’s the wired Lan, but she never uses it anyway so no problems.

I got all the games and BluRays I wanted, so all good, oh and a 60Gb XBox drive, so makes life easier. Just need a copier cable now.

Puppies had the left-over turkey and beef from dinner round the in-laws (was good!), and the kittens had some pheasant.

I wish you all a good rest of the Yule time.

My Own Worst Enemy

82122-1 Just finished watching the last episode (number 9). I have to say WTF were NBC thinking killing the show?

It’s not only one of the best things to come out of American TV in a good long while (let’s be honest Hero’s has run it’s time, and Lost just, well IS) it also had some of the best production, editing and acting from a show that’s come out of the USA.

Now I know that NBC have stated that it’s the ratings that have caused it to be canned, but I’m sure those production values were not cheap, and I bet Slater was far from free.

If that’s the case, then NBC just tell us your short of money, and that you might bring it back at a later point. Let’s just hope that Slater is up for it when NBC come crawling back.

Useful little toy of the day

Bumped into TV Scout the other day, and oh yes, if you have Media Center and download Telly, then get it.

It get’s all the meta info and artwork and re-names/organises the shows into seasons and stuff, most excellent!.
