Media Powerhouse

So I finally got my directv hooked up yesterday. Yippee! Now I can watch all kinds of fun and exciting things. It only took the guy 3 hours to get it installed because of the wiring in the building being all funky. Apparently the contractor didn't label anything in the basement so it was a jumbled mess, then there are issues inside. Also, for some reason the HD channels aren't coming in, so I have to get that fixed.

Speaking of HD. I got an high definition DVD player today. Actually, I got a PlayStation 3, but it has a blu-ray player, so I can watch blu-ray movies. Yeehaa! The odd/cool thing is that the PS3 costs the same as stand alone blu-ray players. Doesn't make a ton of sense to me. But I suppose they make up for it with the games being over priced. Right now, I'm sitting here waiting for it to down load the system update. Probably should have just started playing, but...

In my last blog posting I referred to becoming political... I just see so much stupidity in government and so much dishonesty. If I had to pick two common human failings which annoy me most, stupidity and dishonesty would be the ones. There should be more engineers in office, rocket scientists even more so. So in 2012, Petromagne for President! I'm proud of my real name, but I'm also proud of my Internet alias which I've been using as long as I could vote. So I'll be sure to get a lot of the young vote just for that. What do you think?
