The Hopp Stop

Nice to see some updates, but super-lame that the interface revisions are only coming to new boxes. I'll pass, given that I have lifetime subscriptions for my two TiVo HD boxes and the feature upgrades–apart from interface–are minimal. The only thing that might make me upgrade is a rumored discount on new box subscriptions for existing lifetime subscribers; we'll see what that winds up being.

Nice to hear that Univ. of Michigan is weathering the general state and national economic malaise just fine. I don't root against State, so sad to hear of their problems.

A must-watch for my dog-loving friends. I love the tongues coming out at the end.

Pretty cool: Klosterman interviews Malkmus. I couldn't imagine a better journalist for the task.
