Thanks to this Cnet video, I was reminded of all the stuff that I watched on the Cnet TV shows many years ago. I also forgot that Ryan Secrest was a Cnet host. He’s still goofy. I had a crush on Sophie Formica too. Oh, and sorry, you’ll have to watch the opening ad.

I just finished watching a cool new show on the FX network. It’s called 30 Days, and it’s from Morgan Spurlock, maker of the documentary Super Size Me. The first episode has Morgan and his fiancee Alex living in Columbus, Ohio and trying to survive for 30 days on minimum wage salary jobs.
