I have nothing for today short of loving our current weather.. GO TWINS..
Comments
I do have some ideas for topics that I would like everyone to post one.. Don't be jackass when you read this..But If you had to rank the electronic items in your life that if they broke you need a suitable replacement within the week or the day and why.
I don't want stove,fridge,lightbulb or someother neccessity.
1. Satelite Dish/reciever for obvious reasons like prestine picture quality and the ability to watch the twins,twolves and gophers.. (TV is to obvious since everyone has at least two they can always fall back on an old one in a pinch)
1a. Tivo/DVR for me it is one of the perfect devices that entertain me yet make my family life a whole lot better.. For example on any normal weekday we are either outside or going to church or practice and we never hesitate to do anything like that because we really like a show or a game (Not the vikes I have to watch them close to live insane but all me). I have never missed an episode of the office or Lost or whatever because one of my kids wanted to play catch or read a book or whatever. Typically my wife and I do not have the TV on in our house until the kids are in bed and we have moment to relax talk about the day and enjoy some the shows we like together.. I know you have people like BS that say I don't watch that much TV.. They do watch less mostly because when they sit down at 9:30 or whatever nothing is on so they sit and flip through the dials and watch crap. 95% of my TV watching is tivoed that means I can watch 2 hours of TV in about 1:20 minutes.. So if you have a life yet want to relax for an hour or so and watch some quality programmning get a dvr or tivo.. I do have to give big props to M5/DenverJ who started this whole thing for me 7 years ago.. By the way my orginal 7 year old tivo still works flawlessly..
2. This is a tough one I am going to go with HighSpeed Internet. Since it allows me to work from home when needed and provides me phone access to my family and my entire family uses it on a daily basis.
3. Ipod A year ago I would have never guessed this.. I take it everywhere I go I am able to listen to all the music I really enjoy.. I average about 3 hours a day of listening to it.. Plus you can watch a movie or a TV show.. I can get an album the day it is released and be enjoying that evening..
4. Not sure on this one so I will go with a DVD player since I still average about a movie or year throughout..
I don't know where to stick this but I love high def sports and television the sound and clarity of the picture really add something to watching.. Gives the goods shows like lost and CSI better than DVD sound and picture quality..
I could do more but I will probably change based on other people's thoughts..
Weight 258 and holding strong no rules broken.. Walked a good 3-4 miles yesterday.. Pants hurt less but still have 75% of them that I cannot wear.. DD is turning 12.. Not joking but what a great 12 years.. I will post on this later..
Ok that's it for the early morning edition..
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHEEEEEEEEAVYYYYYD

My solar powered short wave radio would get my vote...when the terrorists take out major cities like they did on the new hit series "Jericho", I'll be the guy who knows what's going on, and all you suckers will be coming up to me saying..."Hey Mr. Information Man, what do you know?...and then I'll be like...hard to say...haven't seen any hi-def sports or kicked it with an I-pod lately...tell you what, maybe we can work a deal....yeah, then I'd have access to both information and entertainment...take that all you lowly slackers who mock the new hit series "Jericho".
...but seriously, I think I'd miss my electric toothbrush..
Peace yall!!!

TS says...
HEAVY D is dumb. you need both a computer and a television to enjoy the first things on your list.
Heavy, you should have said "digital scale" so you could keep posting your weight.
Please, for the sake of us all. Stop.
JLO, in case of a Jericho style nuclear assault, you may have the information, but still, it would be cool to play pac-man and tetris on your 30G video ipod while rocking out to Huey Lewis like I can. (The Huey Lewis reference is just so the folks from JLO's generation can relate.)
But mostly, my digital camera would have to be replaced immediately. That way, I can snap a few pics before radiation disease saps my lifeblood.
Go Twins.
Try running on a treadmill. I have been doing it for three months now, watching TV and DVDs so it's not so boring. I walk for a mile, run for a mile and a half and then walk for another mile and a half. I have lost 15 pounds without giving up beer.
1. PC/iMac/High Speed Internet/Router - Used daily by everybody in my family.
2. iPod - Can listen to any album (that's right, I listen to albums not songs like HeavyD) I own at anytime. Riding in a car with HeavyD in charge of music is like having an ADHD/ADD kid as your personal DJ. Has he ever listened to a song in it's entirety??
3. Nikon D70.
IJ,
Huey got game yo...still get chills when I hear that drum-roll leadup to "If this is it".
Better than listening to Bern, and his masogenistic twist on Heideger's ontologicon (with vague hits of nihilistic obtrusiveness thrown in to confuse the uninformed, unwashed masses...)
Bern is a bit like listening to a troupe of same-sex attracted La Cage a Foux mime artists choking pretend kittens to a point of near death and then laughing (in mime) as the audience gasps in horror. You may need to ask just what that means ....exactly!!!
Bern is a wanna-be Beck!!! Shame on him for trying!!
Huey's message is simple...if this is it..please let me know...if this ain't love, you'd better just say so!...clean...crisp...articulate...to the point...no Birkenstock wearing, freshman academic argument to suffer through, just plain, clear language...like Beck.
Be careful how you label my generation IJ, the information man may be your only link to the Twins after the big one! Just ask the folks in Jericho Kansas.
Go Twins and Huskies!!!!

Ok.. I see you all really told the truth.. Not I want you all to not turn off your tv for a week and see if you can do it.. Name any of your other choices and I bet you could.. End of story... JLO enjoy Huey his lyrics will stand the test of time..
well this is it
O.K., I take your challenge.
I will not turn off my T.V. for a week.
I know I can do it!
