New Years Marathons 539
So for those of us who don't go "Out" for holidays and prefer sitting on
our asses, the extended TV theme Marathon is something of a tradition. Besides obvious choices
like watching all the Star Wars movies, what sorts of marathon
tv endurance tests are people planning? Buffy, Angel, Twin Peaks,
Iron Chef? What are you
gonna do?

Leave the TV off for a day! How's that for a resolution? (And no, don't replace it with 24 hours of Slashdot.)
Start a journal! Read a book! Volunteer! Pray for peace! Do something that you can feel good about. Trust me, a full day of Gilligan's Island won't do it.

I've got a little over 400 hours of stuff I've downloaded off of usenet in Mpeg, ASF, or DivX format. Plug it into the good ol' TV out card, and let play.
Assuming that I can tear my wife's ass away from what ever huggy-feely design crap they're showing on HGTV, I'll be watching the entirety of Noir, Sadamitsu the Destroyer, and Inu Yasha. (There are currently about 50 episodes od IY that have been subbed... so at 24 minutes a piece I may not finish, even if I skip sleeping)

It's not Mrs. Dew's favorite thing, but she tolerates "Clavdivs" once a year. See also this fact or fiction [anselm.edu] site.

You can invite a bunch of friends & have a place for all to sit & drink w/o the crowd of NYE at a bar.
You can get naked with said friends & have a big orgy.
You can consume illegal substances at your own leisure w/o fear of LEO's ruining your evening.
When it's all over, you can carpet the house with sleeping bags and no one has to risk driving whilst intoxicated.
