    TV Show Recommendation

    dexter_season_2_posterI just recently discovered a show that I found fantastic.  The show just finished it's second season, but you can get them on DVD and/or iTunes, etc.

    The premise of the show is that Dexter is a serial killer who's cop father raised to only take out bad guys.  He works for the police as a forensics expert.

    Michael Hall, who was awesome on Six Feet Under, is the main character and he should get an Emmy for this show.

    Check it out, see how you like it.  Warning: based on the subject matter, there are some "disturbing" scenes, so if you are squeamish, find another show.

    Update on hardware woes

     

    Okay, so after a lot of dinking around, I got the Blackjack II working better.  It seems to have needed to completely drain, then charge back up and suddenly I was getting massive battery life.  I thought we were past those days, but apparently we are not.  So goodness on the Blackjack front.

    I have my second Xbox 360 dying on me.  Of course this comes on the heels of making the switch from Tivo to MCE, so it's more painful as it's the only way to watch recorded shows in the family room.  *sigh*  We turned it on this weekend and got 3 rings of red.  I reset the box, but now it's randomly freezing.  *sigh*  Can't win for losing.  I won't buy another XBOX 360 (two failed units is enough for me), so now I have to wait for extenders to come out.  They are late.
