No security detail. No calls home to the wife. No statement to the press. Just a governor and his hiking boots and a pathway between the trees. It’s easy to forget that although I’m the biggest dog on the South Carolina porch, beyond all the pomp and circumstance, even a governor is only a man. Which is equivalent to, say, a medium-size dog. It’s humbling.
The only problem is, how do I keep up with my favorite TLC reality programming? Ask Lindsey Graham: if I miss even one episode of L.A. Ink or Say Yes To The Dress, I get awful grumpy. You don’t want to be on Death Row waiting for a pardon on those days, believe me.
Yeah, I know they’re on in reruns. Sure, I could TiVo them. But IT’S NOT THE SAME.
So whenever I disappear without explanation for days a time, I make sure I bring my WiFi-equipped laptop and hike to a hotspot by the time my stories come on. Thanks to the Slingbox SOLO, I can watch and control my home TV from just about anywhere there’s an Internet connection. A simple interface lets me watch, pause, rewind, and fast-forward my cable, satellite, DVR, or DVD player.
In an ideal world, I’d have even more mobility with the Slingbox iPhone app (sold separately). But since AT&T won’t allow SlingPlayer streaming over the 3G network, you still need to find a WiFi hotspot to watch your SlingBox on your iPhone. Sucks for me, but I’m sure AT&T just wants to keep their 3G network uncluttered. Or they’re working on a competing service. I even called AT&T to see if they’d make an exception for the gov, but they just tried to sell me a cable upgrade. I guess not even a governor can always get what he wants. Like I said, humbling.
Anyway, I guess it’s time to head back to civilization and put a few days in leading my state. I sure hope we haven’t been invaded by Georgia or something while I’ve been gone. But hey, if we have? You guys’ll have to work it out. I’m going hiking at an undisclosed location.
