Need to remember my taping instructions

Nuts. Just remembered that I forgot to turn on the cable box attached to my VCR today. 30 minutes of blank tape will ensue.

Thank you, Transcript Team, saviors of the forgetful!

People told me that once I went to the DVR thingie that my cable people provide that I would never go back.

They were correct.

What was I thinking doing all of that "setting up the vcr" crap for so long?

It is true...I never need to know when anything is on anymore. The DVR knows all and records all...and picks up the 4 am replay when something is pre-empted! I love it!

I'm cheap, and don't have that much time to watch the taped stuff as it is. I'm not paying a monthly fee just to clog up a hard drive with shows I'll never sit down to watch.

Now this tape will be plain, too! Just not paper...

Sen. Craig might be able to give you taping lessons....
