Oh that is funny. Now wait for the outrage in 3...2...1....

By the way anyone with younger kids, Amazon has a good deal on the Disney Epic Mickey game for Wii today. I would post a link, but don't want to get into trouble for spamming.

How does that work? Can anyone tell me? Some people on C-D are constantly posting links to products.

Zimbo, you have over 4000 posts. You won't get accused of spamming if you occassionally share a link to a great product you like.

I just love kitties! But not playing in the middle of the night.

zimbo-how old is your son? Mornings are a pain for us too. Better than they once were, but still a pain.

They caught the mall bomb suspect at a grocery store in Boulder. Nice work King Soopers shopper! It was probably an alert mom!
I have a fever/chills, body aches, a headache, dizziness, cough, and feel sick when I eat. Enough to make me call in sick for work! There aren't a lot of people at work and when everyone gets sick it sucks. Also, one of my co-workers is immune-compromised so she gets screwed over when someone brings a new bug to work!

Sorry you're not feeling well, pass. Hope it's not too serious.

My flaming Internet connection is going out intermittently still, bugger it. They keep telling me there's nothing wrong with it. I'm going to call them tomorrow and yell at them. That'll learn em.

FR - I had that same problem several months ago...no one else was having it in our neighborhood. I spent all kinds of time on the phone with Comcast...grr...Finally, they sent someone out and stupidly enough, the connection on the outside of the house - was loose. The technician who had installed it hadn't clamped the cable correctly or something - really quick and easy fix considering how much time I spend trying to figure it out. Very frustrating. Hope you get it figured out and it's cheap and easy.

Ugh, I hear ya, mm. They've had to fix the cables outside twice since we moved in, not even a year ago. It's riddicledackle.

Plus they keep telling me over and over to power down the modem and reseat the cable blah blah blah..... I'm a high end audio engineer for percy's sake. I know how to toubleshoot a cable. . So I've gotten quite short with them on the phone when they start that nonsense.

I realize they have no idea who I am (I learned how to say that in Hollywood ) but there's no need to treat a person like an idiot.

Comcast sucks. We had to call them out 15+ times before they sort of fixed our problem. Normally they charge for each visit (even if it's their fault) but we pay $1 extra a month to not have that charge. I think they got tired of us calling.

We rent and cannot get a satellite dish. The first second we can we are dumping Comcast and going to DirectTV. Service is way better. For internet we are crossing our fingers that the new Verizon wireless internet comes to our area soon.

We have Time Warner Cable- they're ok, but my biggest gripe is that whenever I call, I'm ALWAYS connected to someone in India who barely speaks English. Granted, they do try hard to be helpful, but it's so hard to try to fix the problem when you're talking to someone you don't understand..
