I Never Said I Was Bright II

Another example of how graduating from college doesn't necessarily make one intelligent.

First, the backstory: When TCI first wired Pittsburgh with cable, they decided to overcome the 30-channel limitation by installing two lines. Twenty-some years later, we're still stuck with that system. Which means I have an A/B switch sitting on top of the VCR.

OK, time for the idiocy part. On Saturday nights, Cartoon Network puts on three hours of anime called Adult Swim. Most of these cartoons are serialized, so if you miss an episode you have some catch-up work to do. Since Rob & Allison's wedding reception was Saturday night I set the VCR to record the two I like. Then I watched an episode of Voyager on channel 19, one of two worthwile channles on B-cable. Then I forgot to switch it back before I left.

So Sunday morning (all right, afternoon) I cranked up the VCR and found that I had recorded ... an hour of PBS. Oops.
