a bit o this torrent and a bit o that lost

We had intended to watch the “LOST”:http://abc.go.com/primetime/lost/index.html episodes that we missed during the December break, after we caught the replay of the pilot. But alas, I didn’t realize they were playing 2 episodes, back to back, and along with other dvr mishaps, we missed SEVERAL episodes. So, thanks to good ‘ol technology, I have borrowed them from a _friend_ via “bit torrent.”:http://www.bittorrent.com Ain’t that a cool thang!

They look AWESOME played here on the puter, but I’m trying to convert them to burn to DVD on the “new burner,”:http://www2.newegg.com/Product/Product.asp?Item=0-N82E16827152035 and the hardest part was figuring out how, and the longest part is the conversion process. It’s going to take some 18-20 hours per one hour episode to convert them. I’m not sure how long to actually burn them. This could take awhile. But since they are running scattered reruns until APRIL 13TH, anyhow………. we will have plenty of time to get caught up. We’re only watching this one with the older kids. The boy stopped watching them with us, he claims because he was so _lost_ and wanted to watch from the beginning in order. I’m not so sure it wasn’t just a priority matter – you know, nightly online gaming and all. Either that or his analytical nature in overdrive, as usual.

Ah well, thanks “Debbie”:http://www.sternski.com for the shared addiction, anyhoo.

Any serial-addictions you are going through? (tongue-in-cheek)
