July 11th/12 - So sleepy..

[NussieT]

I only slept about 2 hours last night because I drove all over the city looking for some stupid ass thing Jim apparently "needed" for early this am but neglected to tell me he needed it until 7:30pm when I was leaving for my gym class...

lack of sleep makes me bitchy and grumpy... you've been warned

[NussieT]

I also hate my avatar but I don't know what I should put there so I'll just leave it...

[JDubb]

Good morning Bro-mo's, T and B!

Morning Jdubb are you going to indulge yourself in a company conference call during the best of today?

:beer: toast to me!

DirecTV can eat a fat dick. I liked it for the first week. Ever since, nothing but bullshit. Now they take away a bunch of channels.. If it lasts more than a couple days i'm going to cancel, I'd say bait and switch would entitle me to be able to end my contract early with no fees. I'm glad you don't have to return the dish, I just got a new shotgun that I haven't fired yet

Congrats to you & the wifey... On the 25th it'll be mine & Jim's 3rd wedding anniversary and in August we've been together for 10 years...

It's all part of the game. Viacom want more money from DirecTV and they do not want to pay it. This is the same game that gets played with all cable and satellite channels and providers annually. It will only be a matter of time before Dish or TWC or Comcast or Charter or "generic" cable provider... will go through this same exercise.

last night we finished the hardwood flooring in our main level.... :happy: , and we installed my network thermostat.

there is something to be said for checking the temperature of my house when I'm not home (from my laptop or phone) :grin:

Yeah, the threats are a normal thing. To actually drop the channels is another. It usually doesn't come to that point. I know they will come to an agreement at some point, but why drag your customers in the middle of your childish fight.
