Me: You mean you watch the whole thing? Y'don't just fast forward to the action?
Him: No, I want to hear the plot.
Me: Plot?! There's no plot; it's always something like: guy shows up to deliver pizza, girl steps outta the shower, and oh, she has no money to pay him. What to do? What to do? Oh my! I've appeared to drop my towel...

I watched the video before reading your post. His voice stuck out to me also, I was trying to figure out who it was too. It kinda reminds me of Mike Rowe or...Tim Allen, I just googled it though and yep. Totally hear that.

Isn't this crazy? I remember these ads. I wish for the life of me that I remember what I thought about it at the time though. I mean, 1993 was forever long ago. I doubt that I'd experienced the internet by that point.

It is crazy, which is why I put them up - I was also amazed at how many of those things are so commonplace these days.

So interested in seeing what the future's like; it's a bit hard to believe that I'll think back one day, "Man, remember way back in 2010?"

Ah, the trusted golden tones of Tom Selleck. Gotta love AT&T, I think the only thing I haven't done is open my door with my voice and tucked my baby in from a cellphone.

Egggcellent...

Yep, those were the two things I've not done either although I'm not sure if I've carried my medical records around with me - although they are online. So maybe it's only two for me too.

I was thinking of getting an ebook reader... but I LOVE the smell of brand new books. I'd miss it too much!

My only problem is that I've got so many large PDF's that I need a big screen one. And the @#$@#$@ Kindle DX won't zoom.

Stupid Kindle DX...

But besides that one (and the voice opening your door), isn't everything else spot on?

First off: thesbian porn sounds like an excellent idea that cannot possibly go wrong.

Secondly I love the idea of those readers and its what I've been pushing for since I was ... in first grade. But they only have fiction and really popular books. They never have the sort of thing I'm actually going to be carrying about with me. So yeah. Must wait.

You rent one first and let me know what you think.

I know! The idea of having my entire library in the size of something that small is something that I would salivate over. But I don't think they're just ready yet. Close though - oh, so close...
