He came and got it fixed and showed me what the problem had been. One of my neighbors had bootlegged himself onto MY cable connection, generously allowing me to pay for his cable TV viewing. When my neighbor had moved out the day before, he'd disconnected BOTH of us, and hadn't reconnected me, but he'd left the cable he'd snuck in, leading to his apartment, so there was no doubt who did it. Asshole!<br /><br />This neighbor came by a week or two later, to visit a friend in the building, and I presented him with a bill I'd mocked up for 50% of my cable payments over the two years he'd been helping himself to my service. He denied it to my face. I told him I'd seen the cable itself leading right into his apartment. He still denied it to my face. I told him I had filed a complaint against him with the police as had the cable company, and that the cops were looking for him. This was a lie, but worth it to see his face turn pale, and then see him take off running. I made sure he saw me pretending to write down his car license plate. Never set eyes on that douchebag again.D.

It is not a historically accurate depiction of the pirate scene in the 60's, and some of the studio equipment is too new for the period, but there's lots of awesome rock & roll and pop music.<br /><br />Unfortunately, Universal feels that they must retitle it as "Pirate Radio" for the U.S. Plus, they're editing out 20 minutes worth of content that I suppose is considered too English for this side of the pond.

The cable installer (Charter) came out, hooked up their cable, then to be helpful, disconnected my dish to teach me a lesson about how unreliable dishes can be. Unhooked the cable, then locked it all inside a utility box. But on the upside, it only took them five days to get back out to fix it. <br /><br />And to this day, the only apology I've received was from my satellite provider, who had nothing to do with it.<br /><br />WV: Thiessen.

The show focuses on four supposed math whiz kids who are among the world's best online poker players (another way of saying loser degenerate gamblers) they rent a mansion in Las Vegas and try to make two million dollars between them in two months-they failed, coming up with something like $600,000 and they were really lucky to get that. The worst degenerate of the group made $7500-really laughable (far more than I make in two months right this second but then again I don't profess to be a world class poker player, either)-you have to see an episode of this show to believe human beings can approach this level of douchebag-in that way it's quite entertaining.<br /><br />ONE FLEW OVER THE CUCKOO’S NEST MEETS SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE<br /><br />When a beautiful, abused, artistically talented Beverly Hills girl meets a Midwestern man at a resort like California psychiatric hospital hilarity, insanity and a bizarre fate driven love affair ensue.
