13. Dear lord help me! (MobiTV streams CSPAN1+2)
Edited on Sat Oct-08-05 01:12 PM by Moochy
I have just signed up and can stream live cspan 1 & 2 to my treo 650 wireless cellphone/PDA thingy.

Now I'll have no reason to not feel disenfranchised, anywhere I go! :)

4. #9 - You postpone a date because something is coming up on CSPAN
I will never forget when I had to push back a lunch date because I was glued to CSPAN on a Saturday (of all days) when Howard Dean was to become chairman of the DNC. And then I got giddy over one of my own state reps seconding his nomination.

Then 15 minutes later I'm on the phone with a friend who also watched it.

Sounds kind of pathetic huh :shrug:

I don't watch C-Span that much but that is funny as hell.

ON EDIT- replace WOW with "ULF!" the new lounge sound effect

7. more Dean than CSpan
I think it was more because of Dean than CSpan.

But also in pictures i have of my son - where I just have been snapping pictures inside the house... I see in the background the TV and yep there is CSpan. That made me laugh actually!
