I'm not joking, actually. Last night I was IMing with a friend from Chicago and mentioned that Diana Krall was about to go on The Tonight Show to perform a Tom Waits song. He told me to turn on my TV and check it out. That's when I realized -- holy moses, I no longer know how to work a television set other than to play video games on it. I have six gaming systems hooked up to the TV in my office, and a complex system for powering them and allowing me to instantly switch from one gaming system to another. But I never actually watch television on the set. It is purely and solely an output device for games. My TV isn't even hooked up to cable. Mind you, it's been so long since I've watched The Tonight Show that I had to concentrate for a second...
