I just finished listening to the latest WTF podcast with Barry Crimmins. I highly recommend you download and listen to this one (and not just because Barry is from the next town over from me – though that doesn’t hurt, either). He wrote all the best stuff that Randi Rhodes ever said on her show back in the AAR days (I know, because we had the chance to go and see him at the Unitarian Church near where we used to live, and I recognized a lot of what he said). Definitely an interesting guy – and a good lefty.

It’s a big day here today, as the DirecTV guy is here right now. Yes, I decided to switch from Dish (thanks for all your input on that), so tonight I should be able to record Haven, Bill Maher AND Dracula all at once. Assuming I can figure out all the new channel numbers, anyway. I also ordered a new TV for my office – nothing fancy. Just something a little bigger than the decidedly non-HD 15″ one I have now. That way, when I hide in my office and watch football, I won’t have to sit four inches away from the teevee. Though tomorrow’s football game will probably be painful to watch no matter how far away I sit.

Not that I’ll have time for football tomorrow, as I have to install the new dishwasher. Aside from trying to figure out how to tear out one cabinet without totally destroying the one next to it, it looks like I’ll have to re-plumb the sink drain lines. That’ll be a pain. If I manage to get that done, I also need to change the oil and the fuel filters on my tractor.

Hopefully I’ll have time to watch a little teevee.
