Thursday Things

Housekeeping: As you may or may not have noticed (since Buzznet hasn’t been working properly anyway), my photoblog has been removed from the right sidebar. Have no fear, there is a link on the left sidebar to the new and improved Flickr photoblog. Enjoy.

The Amazing Race: How cool are Kris and Jon? And how annoying are Freddy and Kendra and Hayden and Aaron? (Sorry Drew.)

Your help needed: As we all know, I love my new DirecTV TiVo receiver. Now that I have the new receiver, I have an extra basic receiver. Anyone know what to do with it? I emailed DirecTV inquiring about a recycling program and they responded by saying they don’t have one but will suggest it to management. I feel badly throwing it away, as I’m sure it’s not good for the environment but I don’t know how to dispose of it. Any suggestions?

Bummer: Had to spend $1.75 on a bottle of water this morning because we can’t drink the filtered tap water due to contamination or something. Lovely.

New favorite website: Simply Recipes. I can’t wait to make these cheese tacos. Yum!

Shout outs: Major props to Sick Candy, Say it, don’t spray it, Reality Remixed and writersbloc for letting us know all about their own senior year of high school.

H, you may want to consider posting your DirecTV receiver in craiglist’s free section.

I spent senior year of high school in a Siberian work camp. So most of my answers to the questions woulda been “Nyet” and “oy, I can’t wait for Communism to fall”.
Long story.

Hey Hilary.

I thought you sold your DirecTV receiver on ebay. You taught me how to do it. And I believed you, too! Man. First your mom doesn’t know if I’m a writer or a comic, now you didn’t sell your receiver on ebay. What’s next? Admitting Mika Sushi has a C rating? Black is white and white is black. I need to go lie down for a bit.

I did sell it! This is my second receiver. I totally sold out and bought one for my bedroom too. No worries…black is black and white is white.

On the subject of things that don’t work, your Atom/RSS feed seems to have died.

OK, the Atom feed is up again. Not sure what the deal is with the RSS.
