DVR

I love to watch TV
One of the greatest things to me
I grew up from 1974 to 1986 with no way to record
I finally found a VCR in 1987 I could afford
Then they changed my cable just recently
So I couldn't record for free
I got my DVR a week ago
Now I can fast forward without going slow
I can record multiple shows at one time
For the cost of 100 dimes
Shows I couldn't record before
I have waiting at my DVR recorded store
Johnny Carson, Jimmy Kimmel, and Stephen Colbert too
Family Feud, the Olympics, All in the Family to name a few
It is so much fun, almost as much fun as singing in my car
That I am having with my new DVR

About this poem:

I have really gone a long way from VCR to DVR. No tapes to store and a better image. The time it used to take to fast forward through commercials is a real time saver.

its one of those things you can't live without
And for you it's the great DVR
mine could have been pc as I played for hours
now it's the mobile phone
only difference is still more playing
but a little more texting new poems
into this place our Sanctuary
Happy Sunday mate

OMG, I still haven't figured out how to record with a DVR. Guess it's not on my bucket list. Enjoy.

SundaySilence, thanks for your comment on my poem. The way I record is to hit the guide button and look up the tv shows, then I hit the red record button and a red dot appears, if you hit it twice then a red dot with two halos appears which means the show will record every time it comes on. This is good for shows that show every week or day.
