I was one of the first blogs to link to this band and hope they go all the way!</p>
<p>Speaking of music, last night Maryam and I watched American Idol on our new soopeerr-doopeer 60-inch Sony HDTV screen.</p>
<p>Damn.</p>
<p>That&#039;s all I can think while watching that screen. We have to rip ourselves away from the TV to go to sleep.</p>
<p>Blogging? Forget it. HDTV wins. It is just so stunning.</p>
<p>Oh, funny aside. Remember my post about visiting Yellowstone National Park? So, what was on my PVR when I got home? That&#039;s right. Sunrise show of Yellowstone&#039;s Geysers. They look better on HDTV than they do in real life! They don&#039;t smell, though.</p>
<p>Question: I wanna watch the World Cup. Turns out most of the games are on ESPN2. That&#039;s not in HD on Comcast. So, what&#039;s the best way to get ESPN2?</p>
<p>Since we&#039;re talking about media, I like <a href="http://share.opml.org/toppodcasts/">the Podcast Readout of Share Your OPML site</a>. Is your favorite Podcast there?</p>
