HDTV

February 13, 2006|Richard Nikoley||

Finally got a chance to begin watching some of the DVR content from the Olympics last night.

It’s getting really simple, folks. If you aren’t watching this on a wide-screen in HDTV format, you aren’t watching the Olympics. You aren’t even watching TV. The difference is as dramatic as comparing one of those 50’s port-hole black & whites with a modern color TV. You really need to beg, borrow, perhaps even steal to get it. Hell, you’re all stealin’ from each other everyday anyway… Hey, maybe you can get the folks across the street to vote to have the people on your side of the street pay to get you set up with a good 40-incher or better, and all the trappings. Then, it won’t really be stealing, would it? Someone voted on it.

That is all.

    I'd love some HDTV action, you're turning me green man. I might just get folks to vote that it is legal for me to rob you. ;P

    Why the little smiley there, mandrill? Do you think that we won't notice that your little "joke" is exactly what you encourage on your blog, apparently in all seriousness?
