Well I’ve owned a PSP now long enough that I’ve come to some conclusions.

As you can see here Tivo has decided that giving us “complete” control over our television viewing actually only now means 99% control.

So the irony is, Terri Shiavo gets her feeding tube yanked (she’s now dead, thankfully) and the Pop gets one inserted. Ironic don’tcha think? Hopefully he’ll be dead soon as well and we can move on.

The RandomWeb screensaver randomly searches the internet for digital photos taken by the more popular commercial digital cameras and displays them. There are also modes to search by phrase (or word) and by site.

I can’t decide what I think of this.
The Colorado Supreme Court yesterday threw out the death penalty in a rape-and-murder case because jurors had studied Bible verses such as “an eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth” during deliberations.
