    Wait ! Where is my stuff ?
    I prepared my arguments during all week-end, and I am now ready to face the steamy RB forum and combat the honorable opponents ?!
    But now, Johanne is smiling, we get more jokes and crazy YouTube clips ? What gives ?
    I miss last week already !!

    :-P

  8. Thank you for letting me know about the hello kitty thing. We were able to keep Barney out of our house and off our TV. Hopefully I can do the same with this.

        Drew, Chat app seems to be calling up RB vblog frame and getting stuck there - or maybe it’s just me …

        I read about the beta RealPlayer on ArsTechinca last week. The copy from YouTube is awesome and the ads look less intrusive but I\’d be afraid of it slowing down my computer like the last one did which sucks because I used to love RealPlayer when I was in high school. I used to go to the computer lab after school and watch all of these livecams from all over the world in it. Then it got all bloated and I got tired of unclicking the files I didn\’t want it to play back for me.

        I\’m using WindowsMedia Player for everything except for iTunes for my iPod and Flash for everything else. I\’ll try it since they\’re your sponsor Andrew but I don\’t know if I\’ll use it regularly.

        RobertT mentions some of the reasons below (bloat, etc.). But in a world that is clearly moving toward open source solutions, there is little room for proprietary ones anymore. When you have tools like Media Player Classic (with RealAlternative) available, why would anyone choose RealPlayer?

    Welcome back.
    I too was comforted to see Joanne back in the “studio” with a quite refreshing episode!

    I sincerely hope RB is healthy and not “broken”.

    I am a relatively new fan, and took the opportunity recently to look more into the history of RB, which is certainly well documented on the net. Interesting, … Very interesting!

    I do NOT miss the brouhaha in the comments (i.e. last week).

    Thanks. Please seriously “contemplate your navels” and keep up the great work!

    Who is doing the Rocketboom video transfer to Tivo??? Lately it has just been a mess. Again today a big chunk at the end of the show was missing. Why bothering having it on Tivo at all?

      Hey Jinxo.

      Thx for the heads up.

      Looks like the TiVo feed got anxious and looked for the show before the file was ready. Try it again. If you still have problems, email us at support at rb so we can follow up.

  13. I’ve applied for a patent on the letter “B”

    so you won’t be able ti use words like

    astard
    itch …or…
    reasts

    …without paying me royalties. Oh for shame…think I’ll patent the letter “A” as well.

        Tough? What do you mean?

        It seems mild and more balanced to me.

    3. Thank you Eric Idle. He can’t say the letter “C” so he uses “B” instead. I think he beat you the patent registration office. That silly bunt.

      ~bman,

      Does this refer back to the “can of worms” last week ? … good one.
      lol for your ~bman and “B” post. Good to see your sense of humor.
      Good luck on your patents!
      BAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!

  15. Gentleman, I can tell you as a RB viewer from the start that it\’ll take a lot more than last weeks little bru ha ha for RB to be \”broken\”. If you\’ll go back to around a year ago this July you\’ll see some real sh** hit the fan. If RB could get through that, than there\’s no doubt in my mind they\’ll be around for a long time to come.

      Thanks. I hope you are right, but I still reserve wondering. I did see Amanda’s unbooming and Joanne’s first.

  16. There used to be a Theramin rock group back in the \’60s. I saw them once. Even Dylan mentions them. And what a name: Lothar and the Hand People.
