Hulu.com added some clips from Food Network shows today. Right now, they just have excerpts, no full episodes, from five Food Network shows. Perhaps if they get enough views and/or feedback, they might consider adding full episodes.
It's amazing how far we have come in so few years. When I was in High School we were still using those black computer screens with the green letters. Now we can see anything in high definition. And I would like to think I am not that old for things to have progressed so far in my lifetime.

We didn't have such a thing as computers when I was in HS or even college. There was one "super computer" at UNC-CH that my school used. Had to keypunch your program out on the cards, feed it into the reader, send it over the phone-line to the "super computer" and in a couple days the dot-matrix printer back in the class room would finally spit out your program for you. Woe is be if you dropped your stack of cards and try to get them back in the right order. Kind of showing my age here!

I use to love keypunch! I can go one better...we learned to type on manual typewriters. You were lucky when you were able to use one of the electric!
Also, as part of Business Class, you had to fill in on the switchboard once a week for the high school. It was the old plug in board that you sometimes see in the old movies. Must admit, it was fun.
We have seen the best of both worlds, haven't we Pluff Mudder? Kids nowadays don't know what they missed!:icon115:
Well, the video thing does not work on dial up waited 45 min to find it still buffering, on a Bobby Flay knife skills. My first typing class was on the manual type writers, then the next year, we got in 5 electric for the school, typing speed went from 45 to 70. We did not even have key punch, wasn't nothing around us that used that. Now the big cities had it, Grand Rapids and Lansing but our small farming community was not that developed yet. Heck we did not even get off the party line till 68, and that was only because my mother raised so much crap with the phone company, they finally agreed to put in a private line. Yes, those days were something to remember.

I learned to type on one of those old big office Royal manual typewriters in HS and after having to bang on the keys when using it, it was quite the transition for me when I finally got my first computer not to beat the keyboard to death when typing!
We've come a loooong way BB and I've enjoyed every minute of it and wouldn't trade it for anything. Yep, kids of today have missed out on a lot of fun!
