The Pope in HD

Posted on October 16, 2007 by epthnation

On this day when the previous Pope is waving at us from the grave (why did he choose fire?), I think of HDTV.  You know, we’re all going to need converter boxes on our regular TV’s in 2009.  Otherwise, all … Continue reading →

Doyle Davidson Show, Part II

Posted on October 3, 2007 by epthnation

Ok, so that praise-service/infomercial thing is on again, still led by the creepy Doyle Davidson.  They’re now using a camera angle that doesn’t show Piano Girl, which is a mistake, entertainment-wise.  What makes it notable is that tonight there are … Continue reading →

I Live in a Third World Country

Posted on October 3, 2007 by epthnation

I’m under a boil water notification this morning, mandated by the Texas “Department of Environmental Quality,” because the power went out yesterday.  I don’t know what power and water have to do with each other, I just know that the … Continue reading →
