When CM Punk's music started playing last night and he walked out with the MITB case, I marked out like a 5 year old. Him winning the belt was the greatest (and most unexpected) moment in wrestling that I can remember in a LONG time. I just hope it "sticks" for a while...

Mikah - do yourself a favor and watch it. It's a really great show. Just skip the first match, as it was a stinker.

Keith - Thanks for the recommendation! I'll have to check it out. They do have broadband, so that's not a problem. But this is also a very good excuse to have them get rid of their ancient technology (I was shocked to see recently that their PC doesn't even have a USB port)...

Eric - let me know how well screen sharing works, as I have had the same idea for my grandparents. They're currently running Windows ME on an old 700mhz PC with 16MB of RAM and I keep telling them that it's time for a new computer. Screen sharing would help me convince them to go OSX, as my...

I don't have USA HD (Buckeye Cable in NW Ohio), but I have to say that even in (digital) SD, it was noticibly better looking than before. I hope we get USA HD soon :)

I do. Is something good going to be on?

Andres- It's a brutal fight, and then Babalu holds the choke longer than he should: http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x2u...-heath_extreme

Casey - thanks for the WEC info! I watched the rest of the WrekCage show that I had taped last night and was quite impressed. All the guys really pressed the action, which made for very exciting (and short) fights. Really good stuff, as I hate fights that go to the judges for decision. I will...

I'm having a few friends over to watch UFC 73 this Saturday. Looks like a good card and should be fun. When is WEC on the Versus network? My listing for Vs always shows, "Off the air", but last night I happened to flip past it and there was MMA on. The first show was a reality show called...

Do you know how long ago Canon started moving the focus motors to the lenses? I have a Canon Rebel 2000 that I was planning on moving the lenses and flash to a Canon DSLR (I'm waiting to see what replaces the XTi; hopefully this fall), and never thought about the lenses not being compatible (at...

That looks like a good deal. Keep in mind, though, that you're going to want to add more RAM to it. 512MB is just not enough anymore. I have the same machine and bumped it to 2GB. The other thing to keep in mind is that Apple *may* be refreshing the Mac Mini lineup in the near future. This is...

Michaels (I hope; should be a good match either way) Undertaker (If Batista ends the streak, I'll be livid) Lashley (There's no chance in hell of Trump going bald) Mr. Kennedy (I'd like to see Punk pull it off, but I think he'll be like Shelton Benjamin in last year's, where he has a great...

Dave, Thanks for pointing this out. I've noticed it on the last several episodes, and thought I was just being overly AV sensitive (which my wife accuses me of on a regular basis). Glad to know I'm not losing my mind, but this is (at best) a shady and annoying practice. I guess I'll have to...

Casey, do you know if the HD PPV is going to be 4:3 or 16:9? I haven't seen that info anywhere.

My local EB got a shipment in yesterday, but they sold out in about 15 minutes. Still looking...
