With so many titles available across so many platforms, there really is no good reason to play anything except the games you REALLY enjoy. I'm playing Devil Summoner at the moment, and the game simply isn't holding my interest. But I feel like I should continue to play because a) I've already invested so much time b) I spent $40 for the it c) It has a many of the elements in a game that I do enjoy. So I find myself still playing even though I don't really want to continue the journey. Its amazing how easily we can rationalize ourselves into wasting time, energy and money.

So I find myself still playing even though I don’t really want to continue the journey. Its amazing how easily we can rationalize ourselves into wasting time, energy and money.

It's the desktop software that lets you download your recorded TiVo shows to your desktop PC. Once I disabled that it worked fine. I'm crossing my fingers! Well not the TiVo actually.

In some places on this website, it looks way too small (during your actual post) and the comments are way too big. Your old site made it much easier. Plus, no color! I liked the green of the old site. But, still, I will continue to read. Well, it’s basically just the font.
