An actual conversation that took place at the O'Neal household last night
Dad: Gawd, I'm so tired.
Mom: Dada, I have a problem.
Dad: What's that?
Mom: I'm starting to wonder what we're going to do when U.B. comes along.
Dad: Yeah, me too. (not skipping a beat) I just watched a Discovery Channel show on feral babies. You know, babies raised by wolves throughout history.
Mom: Did TiVo pick that out for you?
Dad: Yeah.
Mom: TiVo loves us.
Mom: Dada, I have a problem.
Dad: What's that?
Mom: I'm starting to wonder what we're going to do when U.B. comes along.
Dad: Yeah, me too. (not skipping a beat) I just watched a Discovery Channel show on feral babies. You know, babies raised by wolves throughout history.
Mom: Did TiVo pick that out for you?
Dad: Yeah.
Mom: TiVo loves us.

Ah, Tivo... What a wonderful invention. I remember watching some TV show where a guy watched an episode of Ellen and then his Tivo "thought he was gay" and recorded shows popular with the GNL crowd. Every now and then I wonder why it records some of the shows that it does.
Did you know that we are O'Neill's too - just different spelling :)
McAndou -- the workings of Tivo, perhaps the subject of another PhD? I remember being mystified looking at the extended info for "Gilmore Girls". In this screen, it suggests other programs I might like if I like the GGs. One suggestion? "60 Minutes". Why? Because I'm predisposed to watching programs that are an hour long???
Susie -- that's so cool! Yes, our version of the last name is totally bastardized, though the hubs is at least 50% Irish (with his dad containing 100% Irish blood, though born in the US).
