8:41pm Freak Out.

8:42pm Find the new episode and press record.

8:43pm Pray to the Tivo gods that it recorded the show.

9:00pm Discover only 8 minutes of Pushing Daisies has been recorded.

9:01pm Curse my tivo.

What a TIVO nightmare! I’m so glad that I have only rabbit ears! (Ha!) By the way, that is DEFINITELY a “rich people’s problem”!

Sorry to hear about the tivo issues – if it makes you feel any better, I didn’t get it recorded, either…

But

In good news, it appears that the full episode is now available online. I just checked it.

Our DVR did that a few months ago and we had to get a whole new receiver. They said that sometimes they just poop out on you.

I think I wanted to see that show once upon a time. (Like I was going to be home to watch it!) What’s it about again?

Sorry to Bug You All – I’ve recently began using an SEO service ( http://verifiedfile.com ) and overall my traffic and rankings have gone through the roof. Im wondering if SEO Services can get me banned from Google?
