    Most Haunted Versus Ghosthunters

    OK Folks, What do you like best about both shows? I discovered Most Haunted first while flipping through the channels, and thought it was pretty scary, along the lines of Worlds Most Scariest Places that used to air on the Fox Channel. I didn't start too loose interest, up untill the point...

    Where's my Square One TV?

    Apparently the show is celebrating it's 20 year anniversary. And after just coming up on some Mathman segments on You Tube (was looking to make a parody of a parody and searching for images), why not release the show on DVD? They just don't make fun learning shows like this anymore. Now adays...

    What happened to Amazing Race sets?

    These would be great for the commentareies alone, if not the replay value. I've come to love watching TV Sets on DVD, but not so much on first air runs now. Much easier to pick up and go with DVD. Anyone know why they have not been releasing further sets?

    Well, maybe not Kitt... But I'm catching up on my Craig Freguson Shows for the week, and he mentioned that they are going to show the worlds 'first driverless car in London'. You KNOW the voice of Kitt, who's name escapes me at the moment, will just HAVE to record sound bytes for the cars...

    Ever wonder if todays movie scorers take a little tune from classical music and mold it into something new? I hear this song on XM every now and then, Borelo, by Maurice Ravel. There's one tiny part in there that reminds me of something...and I think it's the 'Arena' TOS fight. Can anyone...

    Can an ear ache make you sick?

    I was reading up on colds and drastic temperature shifts. I'm fine when it's 80, 50, or even 20 for long periods of time. But if it goes from 80 to 30 degrees over night, that's when I get a two day cold. It's been really bad this season. And there's only two things I can think of. 1-Last...

    Is my theory correct that the Neilsons are so useless and out of date with the times that they REALLY need to be updated for the 21st century? How many neilson people are there at a time now anyway? Isn't the number something like 1,000 people at any given time?

    Camcorder and Bit Torrent question

    1 - Just saw a news item on the main page that Bit Torrent is now legal. Is EVERYTHING on the service now a legal download? Never used it before, but if it's DRM free, and quality is good, I may give it a shot. 2 - I just hooked up my camcorder to my 20" Widescreen monitor., and the picture...

    Is the Chucky series a comedy now? :)

    I saw the fourth one in the theaters, and I found it more funny than scary. Now the fifth one is On Demand, and I'm laughing more than anything. Are they going the Scary Movie route? :)

    I'm watching it on my slingbox, so the picture was rather blurry, but it was rather impressive from what I thought I did see. Does anyone have a higher quality video link of this? It was on the Craig Ferguson show with Jennifer Love Hewitt last week.
