What a tangled web!

YES I CAN! The ‘scooping The Daily Show’ edition

Posted by tiltiblog on March 3, 2009

As each of my 3 lurkers knows, one reason I love the Internet is for the sweet, sweet way it enables me to watch Cable TV without paying for it.  Which I’m doing right now.  Which means that I just discovered that Jon Stewart just discovered Baconnaise!!  Last Wednesday!  I beat you by two weeks. YES.  Victory is mine, Stewart.

But wait, there’s more!  Not only did I scoop The Daily Show, but since Jon reviewed the product thusly, ‘I think my tongue just took a s***’ I don’ t have to try it!  Because I believe everything Jon Stewart tells me.

(Although…he did stick a corndog-shaped sausage wrapped in a blueberry pancake into the Baconnaise Light before he stuck it in his mouth.  And maybe that’s not the way to start out. )

Anyhoos, Baconnaissers: I will totally enable my lurkers to buy you.

Wait til he finds out about the Bacon Lip Balm.  I eagerly await your product review, handsome funny man!

for obsoleting my TV. Thank you!

I won’t name any names but there are several brave and hard-working souls out there who are making it possible for me to watch TV online. And just to be clear: I am certainly NOT talking about the employees of cbs.com. The network video players are pretty much crap (I find abc.com’s is ok, especially when the player skips over the between-segment ads it’s supposed to force you to watch. Yay! Don’t change a thing).

The last thing I will feel like doing come February of ’09 is shopping for coax cable. Oh and Internet? I also appreciate you for reminding me how much I love old people (pretty much in inverse proportion to my love of young folks). Thank god my dear maternal grandmother passed before analog TV did! She would have just put the set in the basement, for all eternity. And my other Gramma can use the Interwebs, so she’ll be able to fend. (She’s still on AOL for god knows what reason but we must pick our battles, nay?)

Anyhoosit, sit back, wuh wuh watch and enjoy this demo of Bubbie hookin’ up the signal converter.

Versatility is my middle name.

No, it’s not, it’s the Internet’s: not only can you use this to communicate your distate for Sarah Palin as a potential Vice President, you can also use it to tell the world about the bland and forgettable girl you kind of can’t believe your son is still dating.  Seriously, people:
