I really wanted to see the NFL Saturday Night game this evening, but seeing as I had other places to be, I just recorded it so I could watch it when I got home. Now all I had to do was avoid learning of the final score before I got home. No such luck. I managed to have the score thrown in my face no less than three different times, through three different media, before I wwas able to get home and fire up the game on my DVR.

I find it intriguing that now that we've finally reached an age where technology has advanced to the point where I can effortlessly record a football game with the single touch of a button and then watch it when I get home with the single touch of a button, the information age has become so pervasive that I can't manage to avoid the final score on my way home to watch it.
