We bought the first year of the latest Sienna (2004) and it is a very good minivan. The new Odyssey had not yet been introduced and the old model felt old, so it was an easy decision for us. If I had to buy today, I would most likely go with the Odyssey as we've been Honda people for a long time (ou...

You might also check if your ISP offers a free virus program. When my Norton ran out, I downloaded McAfee from Comcast and it works great.

Road and Track had an article this month about Champ Car and how great it is doing. The article was so one-sided (and kinda goofy), I checked three times to see if it came from the Champ Car office or a staff writer at R&T. I haven't watched the series in a couple of years, but I would call myself a...

I turned my kids onto Homestar and they are completely head-over-heals nuts for the site. I went crazy this Christmas and bought them DVDs and T-shirts, and the thing they like the most is the Strong Bad Sings CD. That gets played everyday in our house. Just TRY to get "The Cheat is Not Dead" out of...

You heard it here first: the under-the-radar 2006 Colorado Rockies will finish 80-82 this year! They have lots of young talent and many question marks, but the trend it upward.

My buddy just spent a week in the hospital with whopping cough. The doctors were real slow to diagnose it; they only tested for it after he asked them to. It must not be seen much around here or he got a stubborn doctor. He's out of the woods now, but for a few days it was a bad scene with him actua...

I have some Pelican wireless controllers I got at Costco a couple of years back and they are not very good. The buttons need to be hit pretty hard and the analog control is not very precise. Definitely several steps down from the 360 controllers.

I just got a 6412 DVR from Comcast and was wondering the same thing. I tried running composite cables (I wasn't worried about quality) from the output of the DVR to the input of a standalone DVD recorder but I didn't get a signal. I thought maybe the outputs were disabled or maybe I needed to unplug...

My local K-Mart had two Premium systems in the case yesterday and ever since the new MegaUltraSuperDuperWal-Mart opened a couple of blocks away, the K-Mart is a ghost town. I wouldn't be surprised if those systems were still sitting there today. If you want a system these days, you can find them, bu...

The thing about Bayless is that no one admits to liking anything he's ever done, but amazingly damn near everyone knows everything he's ever done. I've only read one of his columns, so I never know what you guys are talking about, but whenever someone says 'that column sucked,' ten guys jump up and ...

I'm quite happy with the 360, even moreso than I expected to be. It's an amazing little box. I was in Best Buy yesterday and felt some frustration with the short stack of available games, but that's no surprise and should be remedied soon enough. No kidding about the PSP. I'm not sure I've played mo...

I've had XM for about a year or so. I finally jumped in when they announced MLB and I was not disappointed last season; baseball on the radio is fabulous. I had also heard that XM had deeper playlists than Sirius, but I have not tried Sirius myself to test that claim. I do know that the XM playlists...

Congratulations to Leebo (The Pennsylvania Prognosticator? The Mechanicsburg Marvel? The Harrisburg Holupki?) on winning the football picks this year and for the impressive feat of going wire-to-wire! Thank you Jack for running the show with precision and speed. It was most enjoyable again this year.

I wasn't desperately looking for one, but I'm in the habit of checking a case when I happen to be near one. I was walking by the games at Wal-Mart and they had a couple of 360 Premiums in the case. They said they got 8 in at 2pm and there were 3 left at 2:45. I bought one, even though I was OK with ...

We still don't search out or TiVo his show yet, but my wife and I always stop and watch if his show comes up in the rotation. His monologues are always good for a laugh and it is impressive how off-the-cuff they seem, but always entertaining. He seems to just go in a direction you wouldn't expect an...

Did the Rockies not hear about the meetings? It sure has been quiet.

I have a Lite-On DVD recorder and it works great as a VCR replacement as long as you then watch the shows on the same DVD player. One thing I was hoping for was that the discs that were written in the recorder would work in all my DVD players, but they do not. The discs work in my computer and Xbox,...

I haven't been gaming much lately, but these games were my favorite this year: 1) MVP 2005 (Xbox) - Solid all around, although I didn't get as far into my season as I wanted to. 2) Moto GP3 (Xbox) - I've always loved this series. The new tracks are fantastic. 3) Ridge Racer (PSP) - I probably played...
