Thanks! The timing was just right for me to set up the recorder just before leaving for work. Sounds interesting.

argh

I have tv running into my computer, but don’t get History International on my desk, meaning I can’t record it into my computer. We have the digital cable boxes in the rest of the house, so I guess I have no choice but to park myself in teh living room for an hour this morning.

Gee, Frank, that really sucks…[:X]

It’s a dirty, thankless job, but somebody’s gotta do it.

Thanks Jim !

I watched it, and it was obviously pretty dated, but enjoyable. Some of the vintage material and layotus shown were exceptional.

Even though I am a die-hard Lionel guy, I can’t help but gnash my teeth a bit over the way these types of documentary programs overly romanticize the “JLC” story. Likewise I hit my limit to the show as they were showing those hard-working industrious US workers at the Michigan facility building Lionel trains.

Now excuse me while I get my tounge surgically removed from my cheek.

maybe someday I’ll learn how to program the tape feature

Thanks for letting us know. I just sent an email to my DVR to record them (ain’t technology great![tup]).

[:O] That’s it!!! I’m heading to Best Buy.

I e-mailed Best Buy to send me an e-mailable DVR. I’m waiting for it to download! [;)]

Using Tivo to record the program, part of my DirecTV package!! With DirecTV and Tivo I can record programs up to 12 days or more away![(-D][2c]

Another program to watch is one about steam locomotives on the same channel only a few hours later.

Will mention later if I liked the program.

Lee, do you think we really give a rat @#&% if you liked the program?

Just joking with ya, Lee! [;)][:D][:X][(-D]

Hey Jaabat,

Maybe you should give DirecTV a try as I don’t have to wait to down load anything, all I do is call up the program guide and flip thru channels and time to record something, and most times I can record up to 12 days or more ahead of time, no need for a T.V. guide paper. Maybe I should mention that I have the premeir channel package with three or more HBO’s and four Showtime channels.[(-D]

Please leave your rats at home Jim or my five cats will have a light snack of rat meet.[dinner]

Philly, It’s nice to see you posting again. Enjoy the program.

Then go lay down! [;)]

Jim

Hey Jimbo,

Go read the post Bad Track ideas to avoid!

Lee F.

I’ll say it again…Ain’t technology great!

Nope,

I just checked and nowhere does it say anything about Toy Trains nor Steam Trains in the next 4 days.

Check again because its not right.

Cheese

Are you looking for the “Voyager” program?
