Relationships:

Today, there were a number of interesting articles out on relationships. I don't think they are new with the exception of the first one. Enjoy!

• DVRs save relationships, industry study says. (MSNBC) I would probably have to say that this article is true. I can't imagine life with out my dvr, let alone a relationship without one. Sad, I know. But I have terrible taste in television programming. I watch the most vapid and stupid tv shows. And if I had to watch 20 hours of the English Premiere League (soccer) a week, I would probably shoot myself. So my relationship advice is to buy a dvr and to leave me alone during Project Runway and Gossip Gir.

• Women pick men who look like dad (BBC)

• Study Shows Men Attracted To Women Who Look Like Their Mothers (Jezebel)

The bottom two studies are not really a surprise. My brother married a Japanese woman (like my mom) and I guess my sister and I will end up with someone like Jesse Ventura.
