I don't know any commercials made after about 1990. You should have said so.

Sorry if I ranted. I react badly to people telling me what I "should" do.

It's alright. I'm tough.

Just turn the page and start over. We can't focus on our mistakes all the time.

DirectTV isn't all it's cracked up to be. Just like their silly commercials.
It's been my experience that.... the cuter the commercial, the crumbier the product. Suckering in the weak minded with clever ads equals Bovine Scatterings.

You get signal loss every time it rains or snows or a bird takes a dump on your dish. Their internet service is download only because the dish isn't equipped to transmit data back up to a satellite. It can only receive. Making it necessary to have some kind of land line internet connection so, why bother?

All we need now is for Frau to install some web cams in her condo and start a live feed website so we can watch her "getting things done."

I can't wait for the shelf liner episode.

Lol I lined the shelves in my walk-closet this morning. The ones in the kitchen are pretty much done, I think there may be a couple drawers in the master bathroom that I didn't bother with because they were clean and I haven't really put much in there yet. The half bath vanity cupboard is lined, the guest bath upstairs I'm not even bothering with at all yet... really the only major shelf lining to be done is the linen closet, and that is a relatively tight space and the shelves angle back into a corner so one end of each of them is... a triangular shape instead of squared off. Should be interesting, I'll keep you posted.

Time Warner called this morning and they are supposed to have someone out here by noon. I emailed the HOA last night hoping for some info but so far, no response.

Cincinnati Bell sells DirectTV bundled into their other services. I considered it but only heard negative feedback... my sister has Dish Network or whatever at her house, they considered DirectTV as well when they switched from cable and the guy who sells DirectTV there advised them against it. He said he had switched to Dish himself because DirectTV wasn't reliable enough and the signal was always going out.

At any rate, I wouldn't be allowed to mount a dish on the condo, the only option would be to set it up on a tripod in my little courtyard and getting a clear signal from the proper direction in that location would probably be very difficult. So cable it is. Sometimes the devil you know is the best alternative.

Signal loss isn't that bad for us...but the internet is. I've been complaining about my internet ever since we got it. It's better than nothing...but it's slow as hell.

I want to see the window cleaner episode.

We could call it "Frau Kaleun Gets It Done".
