Live Long and Prosper

Totally not on the topic of TV or anything like that, but I thought I'd point you to an interesting service that just popped up on my radar:

Prosper.com.

These guys let you lend and borrow money directly from others while cutting the banks out of the middle. If you lend money, you will make more than you would with the banks. I'm giving it a try...if you've got idle cash, put it to work (yes that's a listing that I put out just to give it a shot).
