American on Purpose : The Improbable Adventures of an Unlikely Patriot is the autobiography of Craig Ferguson, whom most of you will know as a)Host of the Late Late Show or b)that guy that played Drew’s boss on The Drew Carey show.

I was sent an invite code in my e-mail for EpixHD from Verizon which apparently is a new channel for Verizon cable services.

EpixHD has an online component which offers the movies and specials that they show in streaming form. My initial sign-up tells me that it lasts for seven days, and there are some higher bandwidth HD options grayed … Continue reading →

Posted on August 22, 2007 by JamesInDigital

The Watch Now function of Netflix has become a fascination for me… it might become an obsession should they choose to up the quality and variety of things available to watch. Mostly I have been watching documentaries and TV shows with the feature. The Office both British and American versions, and most recently Fawlty Towers.
