Funniest reruns (updating the re line- Hi Me!)

Wrong. Funniest non core character is Puddy, followed by Peterman. I actually think Kramer was really annoying but had funny moments. One of the funniest episodes I can think of was the Bizarro episode. I also loved Moops. Too many to list.

But, SatC has been reruning twice a day on HBO2 lately. They were having some cotnest to list the three best episdoes (which is nearly impossible to choose from). But last night I saw an episode that had me laughing out loud, which I admittedly rarely do with TV. The one wheere Miranda dates the guy who won't shut the bathroom door.

It was intended as more of a word of caution. Obviously G3 should get her something more substantial and something symbolizing the significance of the occasion and the depth of his affection. Like a bass boat.

If she didn't ask for it and I got it for her, I might have been accused of buying her something that I really intended for me.
just a hint. You should get her something girly to go along with the Tivo. Like something silk, or cashmere, or jewellry or a spa treatment or something. Doesn't have to be big. But it will probably go over very well in case it ever pops into her head that you were mainly thinking of yourself in getting her Christmas gift (notwithstanding her request).

As easy as giving cash, but it never fails.

Maybe I'll just give Sequels cash...

If you can't think of anything original, full-on spa day someplace ridiculously pampering--that serves exotic teas and truffles with the massages and facials, not "god you're obese" wheatgrass health snacks. And you take care of the kids all that day without bitching about it when she gets home.

Good point, Gwinky. Already did.

It just so happens her birthday is very close to Christmas.

And I was only slightly thinking of myself. She watches a lot more TV than I do...

Remember, she actually has to get to use it--no man-hogging it.

This board should be renamed Newsradio fan club board. Although not a fan of the series when it was out, I caught a few of them on A&E and then started Tivo-ing them and watching every day in 2001 - pre my interest in geeky internet lawyer boards. But perhaps my finding y'all was inevitable.

Not to be a Timmy or anything, but the game Beth brings to the office isn't Defender, but rather, STARGATE DEFENDER. And how brilliant is it that the video game obsession spoils Dave's . . . retaking the SAT to see whether he or Lisa is the smarter.

Apropos of peterman, we* were watching hockey night in Canada the other day courtesy of the Center Ice package and I realized that the Canadian Coors Light commercials are kind of funny with a voiceover by Peterman talking about a mission to the rocky mountains or something like that. No twins or guys night out or Kid rock or anything at all like that. I wonder what kind of market research led them to conclude that Peterman would go over better in Canada to sell beer than sex or male bonding.

*we is me and your boyfriend. If that joke has not completely worn out its welcome

A trip this winter to a central american vacation destination (not specified as it is unusual enough to be outable). I had to tell her so that we could coordinate vacation time, etc. Still, she loved. That and a bunch of camera equipment, which is what she has been jonesing for lately.

Get her a Rabbit, so she won't bug you when you're watching your Tivo'd shows.
