All Hail The DVR @Solsticepublish

I watched a program on the 101 greatest inventions of all time.  The I
Phone was number one.  I have no problem with the device but I would
personally have placed air conditioning higher than 13th.   Then
again, what do I know?  It made me think about some of the things about
which I ask myself, “How did I live before I had this?”  Amazingly the
first thing that came to mind was the DVR.  How DID we survive before the
DVR?  We used to use the VCR and have tapes used strictly for taping shows
we couldn’t watch.  Half the time, the show didn’t tape right.  The
other half, it always seemed to start after the start of the show or end before
the end of the show.  It was better than fighting over the remote but still
a flawed system.  Now when my wife wants to watch a show and I want to as
well, we can just DVR one and watch the other.  If we go out to dinner,
there’s no worry about missing our show or the VCR recording it right.  The
DVR catches it.  How about those shows you used to love but now only come
on at 3AM on an oddball channel?  No problem.  While I doze, my DVR is
blissfully recording my show.  When the big game is on and I am working…you
guessed it.  The DVR catches it all in high definition.  While it is
true that it shouldn’t be somewhere on the list around where antibiotics are, I
figure if an I Phone is number one, can’t this be on the list?
