Ah, good to see him namecheck Leprechaun 5: Lep In The Hood.
Lep in the hood, up to no good…
Andy,
The TV wouldn’t ever randomly shut off on me. But it did have annoying static at the top of standard def channels. Do you see that? I could never figure out if it was the TV or TimeWarnerAustin.
Also, I really doubt that the ghost at my place went with the TV to your place. That’s a little far fetched.
Ren
I dunno. I do notice that SD looks like crap, but only sometimes.
I didn’t have a ghost at my old place. Much.
Good show. Nice conversation about vegetarianism. Sometimes as a vegetarian, you might look the other way at some chicken broth or something because you know, you just don’t want to be a jerk or “that person.”
Foul for misusing the word literally….twice.
I caught him doing it once, but opted not to call him on it.
I WAS AMUSED
Also, I can’t find anyone selling digital copies of Kick The Tragedy. ;_;
That album was released on Caroline, so whoever handles Virgin would be where to go, but it’s been out of print forever, so I wouldn’t hold my breath.
lawrence welk is still on pbs stations in the northeast. when the in-laws (grandparents) come over i catch my kids watching it with them.
Whereismyrobot – I absolutely stand by my usage of ‘literally’ re: masturbating onto the graves of 9/11 victims. You don’t always have to whip it out to be masturbating.
You FAIL at language.
Ren, I have annoying “digital-noise” at the top of my SD channels too and I have Time Warner in LA. I have a Samsung 1080p 40″ LCD. I am thinking it must be TWC.
