We stopped the car and asked is we could help them, they were trying to fix their antenna so they could watch the TV. They complained that it had been out all day, and when I asked them what kind of provider they said they didn't have one, but used analog. Well, no shit! I explained to them that everyone but them obviously knew about the switch, and boy were they pissed. How dumb can people be? I told you so. By tomorrow, the pandemonium will ensue. Raving mad people will be roaming the stores, cussing up a storm claiming no one told them about it. Hi Amykins love. smooches your soft cheeks :c )

I'm just curious, because our newspaper has a story about people running out at the last minute to get the $50 converter boxes. Wouldn't it be smarter to buy a used digital TV on Craigslist for $25?

During the Stanley Cup's commercial interruptions, I'm going to flip to channel 40 for a little religion from Cornerstone tv and to 51 for a little home shopping network action. Fine tv viewing all-around. I remember when channel 18 was The Jukebox channel.

There's a night watch program where your local channels will still be able to pick up analog signals for two weeks and B.) PEOPLE ARE STILL IN THE FUCKING STONE AGE!

It's all just radio signals....nothing special. (The digital signals aren't as strong as the analog....that's the difference.) I'll bet they break a record for selling the most tv's in one day tommorow. And whoever said "buy a used digital tv for $25 on Craigslist"....yeah....that ain't gonna happen.

They want to free up bandwidth. Bandwidth is limited.....digital takes less. They want the extra bandwidth for cops, firemen, etc. That's what they're claiming anyway.

This thug waltzed in LAST NIGHT and stole the digital TV from the men's locker room at my gym. I guess he didn't want to be bothered with a converter box.
