I am about to confess something horribly silly: I first heard about Tivo in Indiana at my father-in-law’s. He had a shirt that said Tivo on it. I hadn’t heard of it, but he had been to their demo somewhere near IUPUI’s campus was (where he worked at the time), so he explained it. I laughed and said (boldly and stupidly) I can do that with my VCR. Oh, the queens of the stone age will rule with an iron fist – for about 2/3rds a second.
Jessica is now on the phone with her mom explaining to her how her mom’s DVR works. We have one and we love it and use it, its not Tivo brand, but its the exact concept my father-in-law explained to me. The one I mocked. I’m such a goober sometimes I scare myself. I’m hopeful that I wouldn’t have been so brash as to say that movies with sound were just a fad [Joseph Schenck did].
