  1. Re:It's flexible and that's a problem? on Best PC DVR Software, For Any Platform? · · Score: 1

    I know a number of girls and guys (myself included) who ended up "hooking up" on DVD date night. Typically the scenario is: home cooked meal or take-out, get snug on the couch during dvd date night, one thing leads to another... rest is history. Don't underestimate the power of DVD date night.

    Um, have you not had a relationship before? It has nothing to do with being cheap. It's not out of this world that some nights your significant other (and any normal person, hot date or not) just wants to stay home and have a movie night (aka "date night") and avoid spending money out and about (not cheap, just who always wants to blow money ALL the effin' time) and avoid the crowds. Geezus. It's not THAT foreign of a concept.

    Here's why. You cannot manage what you cannot measure. A while back I used to bike to work 22 miles and lost 20 lbs. However I stopped after almost getting hit several times and the breaking point was after my gf's brother's friend's dad was killed while biking (and the dozen or so bikers reported killed over that past year). At that point I decided it wasn't worth my life to work out via commuting to work on bike. Now I want to work out via biking on a trail, running on a trail and rollerblading, again, on a safe trail. But I need to quantify exactly how intense my commute was and see how much harder I need to work-out without that 22 mile commute. I need data!!! And yes, I'll have to make 1 last attempt on the bike commute of death to get the first batch of baseline data, but hopefully the odds are in favor that I'll be able to make that last trek without getting killed. If I don't reply next month, you'll know why. ;-)
