"our" Mediacom carries the Oxygen network, lifetime, 2 japanese channels, 2 spanish channels (not the ones with the hot chicks), the "mediacom local" channel which is a blank blue screen 75% of the time, and all kinds of other crappy channels.

Wait a second, I thought all Spanish channels had was hot chicks.  You've totally just blown my mind.

Came to work one day a few years ago to find a couple of trucks in my parking lot and orange cones all over. Turns out it's a subcontractor for the cable company tunnelling fiber cable under the parking lot. Dude says the cable company said they had an easement. Well, I didn't sign any easement so you don't have one. Long story short, after numerous phone calls, and a short delay in the tunneling schedule, I now enjoy all the channels on the spectrum at work and at the Finsleft Mansion, for free. And with 4 million channels to choose from, there's still nothing on.
Finsleft & Associates is negotiating an extension to the present deal to include all sports packages, pay-per-view, adult channels. Developing....

Fins,  I think when PC busted the news that BobFalls's post came from on-campus it freaked him out and he went into hiding. Still developing however...

Any way we can get KR's Des Moines apartment free cable on the Finsleft clause?

[Touchdown Tommy]

KR, I'd make one substitution to your "ala carte" list.  Fox News instead of CNN  .  I know Frank feels me on this...

[Retired Old Rat]

Your comcast probably carries FSN North though doesn't it?

I wish there was an a la carte option for cable. I'd get the following and be perfectly happy: local CBS, local Fox, local NBC, local ABC, ESPN, ESPN2, FSN North, and CNN.



Instead, I bought the $20 rabbit ears from Radio Shack and now I get NBC, CBS, Fox, ABC, and IPTV. Enough to get most football games which is all that really matters.

KR,

What about Fox News?  Wouldn't want you to miss out on the wisdom dispensed by Anne Coulter.  

[tmerton]

Miss the start of the baseball game?  No worry - sing along with this guy

Just how much do you think this guy had to drink? 

[Whoa Nelly]

$60?  My latest bill from Cumcast was $95, so you're getting no sympathy from me

Mention Dish to a cable rep and Cable to a dish rep - they'll throw deals at you faster than a Tommie opens her legs.  With all those fun fees and taxes thrown in, we pay $58/month for Digital Cable and High Speed through "Cumcast."

At least spell my hero's name right, Ann no E.

Poor woman merely questions democrats use of victims for political gain and she gets hog-tied, tarred and feathered for it.

She has a very Steinish nose.


Besdies, I'm not a big fan of Fox News I like my news like the view of the leaning tower of Pisa when viewed from the East; skewed, distorted and leaning to the left.

Saturday morning Fins and some of the guys went out to play 18 and were just starting on the first hole.  Fins was beginning his pre-shot routine, visualizing his upcoming shot, when a voice came over the Clubhouse speaker:

"Would the gentleman on the women's tee back up to the men's tee."   

Fins could feel every eye on the course looking at him.  He was still in his routine, though, seemingly impervious to the interruption.  Again came an announcement from the Clubhouse.   

"Would the gentleman on the women's tee kindly back up to the men's tee."   

Fins simply ignored the guy and kept concentrating, when once more the speaker  blared out its message. 

"Would the gentleman on the women's tee, please back up to the men's tee."   

Fins finally stopped, turned, looked through the clubhouse window, directly at the person with the microphone, cupped my hands over my mouth, and belted back, "Would the idiot in the clubhouse kindly shut the f*** up and let me play my second shot."

[finsleft]

Oh, golf jokes, huh?
The lady golfer got stung by a bee on the course. Club pro says, "where'd it sting you?" She says,  "between the 1st and 2nd holes." Pro says, "Your stance is too wide."

KR, We've got Fox Sports North over here in Wiscy, but it's not the same one as in Minnesota. Unfortunately, there is more than 1 version of Fox Sports North.

Next time you're up here stop by with a spool of 308.21 miles of coax. We can put a splitter on and send you down the road.

Beer golf.  While away your Friday on this one.
