That would be a one of a kind collectors item....If you could figure out how to reprogram it it could make it nice loud roostery sound, and in between yell "hail the vulc"
Ugh I'm sooooo pissed off at the cable company.. they were supposed 2 b out tdy between 1-3, well they came out, but our buzzer system wasn't working.. and we didn't know it so they called my mom's # that we gave the m as an alternate, then she called us to let us know they were here, and the a-hole didn't even wait 2 minutes and just left!! So we call the cable company and they say they can't send anyone back out because of the weather! It's a crock of crap man.. because the roads are fine. They obviously didn't want our business!
lol I cussed the lady out on the phone and told her it was a horrible way to do business... to LIE about the weather? Gimmie a break! I told her flat out..I said look lady.. the roads are fine I was just out driving on them... so don't even try to tell me the roads are bad. And she didn't say a damn thing! So now I have to suffer a few more days w/stupid icky dial up!
well the guy never even came up to the door.. and he couldn't even wait like 2 minutes for my hubby to get his shoes on and let him in! THAT is what made me mad... it's like come on man!
I have a feeling it was a contractor too... but it just irritated the piss outta me lol. We have it scheduled for Tuesday between 11am and 1pm.. so HOPEFULLY they'll be out.
MM- when you get this frustrated, I have only one bit of advice for you. Go to www.russellfreedom.com , and edit stuff. Anywhere else, you can only edit your own stuff. ;P
It is what it says it is. Go to "recent changes" Read stuff, then at the bottom it says "edit this page" Hit that, edit away! then hit save. You will have become part of russellfreedom in the universe. mmmikey has spent (aka wasted) much time editing there today. I don't know of any forum where you can edit yours, and everyone elses posts. Add, interject, erase,.....
JT, I know they have things set up so that you get a better deal if you have basic cable and Internet instead of just Internet. I don't know the specific amount though.
There is a "Take 3" package that has phone, Internet and Cable for 125.00 a month. Of course if you tell them you got a magazine and saw the offer for Take Three at 99 dollars for four months you can get that deal too.
Nope..We are still using what they call RSU's. The cable coming from the system goes into a box outside your home. Then that box gets tied into your internal wiring. Everything inside stays the same. Even your number if you choose.
I'm not sure on the cable package you get with the take three so check that for sure. But over all it's a good deal. Even when you pay the 125 a month compared to what you get.
Oh yeah.. not that it matters... but Activate HSI by March 31 and Get a Free MP3 Player. Not sure how that would work if you already had a cable modem but then upgraded your services.
Yes.. You pay an Extra 5 bucks for the HD box. The other boxes are just normal cable boxes. There are like 6 movie channels, 7 other channels, WCCO & KARE in High Def. (Thing thats all for now).
Maybe you should mention that you heard about "DVR's" since you are considering the HD upgrade.

Well that sucks! Especially if I don't want/get all the movie channels.

They say they don't offer DVR in my area yet.
2B honest...I don't know...i don't do the bills...
She likes the movie THX about as much as I like Jackass!
Oh! What if I made the rooster a Vulc suit? COOOOL idea!
That would be a one of a kind collectors item....If you could figure out how to reprogram it it could make it nice loud roostery sound, and in between yell "hail the vulc"
Oh! I bet I can change the voice box and re-record!
Who knows how to do that?
I just come up with the genius ideas....I have absolutely no idea how to implement them.
Crap. We need an implementer. Why yes...>:)
hehehe. As long as the implementor wears some sort of super hero costume...
[Edited by on Feb 19, 2005 at 08:32pm.]
Or my new Klinker coat... oh yeah!
Super hero costume? I'm in. It's gotta include a tiara though.
Hmmmmm

  NOooooooooo

Take a deep breath, MM- and go to their office, and light up a poop bag in front of their door.

one ringy-dingy. I appreciate your frustration, mm
I'm still boycotting cable, but I have road-runner internet. Hee.
lol they're dumb man! No offense to OTiS cuz I know he works there.. and I know he's got his stuff together.. but those CSR's are just stupid!
if you have comcast thats typical for them ever since they took over customer service went down the drain
well the guy never even came up to the door.. and he couldn't even wait like 2 minutes for my hubby to get his shoes on and let him in! THAT is what made me mad... it's like come on man!
Welcome to the faceless world we call business.
Sorry about your issues MM. Wish I could do something to help but Customer service doesn't listen even when I talk.
Very good chance you had a contractor. Egram me your info (phone number and such) and I'll take a look tonight when I get in if you like.
I have a feeling it was a contractor too... but it just irritated the piss outta me lol. We have it scheduled for Tuesday between 11am and 1pm.. so HOPEFULLY they'll be out.
Dumbasses didn't think to look and see if I had internet.
OTiS. Do you know what sort of deal you get on cable if you have internet or vice versa?
MM- when you get this frustrated, I have only one bit of advice for you. Go to www.russellfreedom.com , and edit stuff.
Anywhere else, you can only edit your own stuff. ;P
[Edited by on Feb 20, 2005 at 03:25pm.]
tell ya wut if the TM's at my job did what that contractor did.. he'd be out of a job.. that's for sure. They're really anal about that stuff.
lol KT I liked the flaming poop bag idea better tho :)
woah.. lol wtf is up with that russellfreedom thing??
MM- have YOU edited lately?
It'll make you feel empowered, naughty, and just may make a few chest hairs sprout....
lol I have no idea how to navigate that site..
It is what it says it is. Go to "recent changes" Read stuff, then at the bottom it says "edit this page" Hit that, edit away! then hit save. You will have become part of russellfreedom in the universe. mmmikey has spent (aka wasted) much time editing there today.

lol it's kinda weird!

yes editing can do wonders....and it can make one wonder..that and posting strange things at redandnater.com suisare board
Do you have to have special phones for the Cable Phone?
Nope..We are still using what they call RSU's. The cable coming from the system goes into a box outside your home. Then that box gets tied into your internal wiring. Everything inside stays the same. Even your number if you choose.
[Edited by on Feb 20, 2005 at 03:43pm.]
That might be worth it, if I switch everything over.
I'm not sure on the cable package you get with the take three so check that for sure. But over all it's a good deal. Even when you pay the 125 a month compared to what you get.
[Edited by on Feb 20, 2005 at 03:48pm.]
that's what we have...
How much is it after taxes and everything?
Oh yeah.. not that it matters... but Activate HSI by March 31 and Get a Free MP3 Player. Not sure how that would work if you already had a cable modem but then upgraded your services.
It's only a 128MB player anyway, so who cares?
Bwaaaaah....
Our TV in our living room is an HDTV, but none of the others is.
If I got the HD upgrade, will I still be able to watch on the other TV's?
I'm assuming it's just a different cable box?
[Edited by on Feb 20, 2005 at 04:06pm.]

Well you're helpful.
:-)
Which of the movie channels would you guys suggest, if any?
[Edited by on Feb 20, 2005 at 04:14pm.]
that's what my wife says..

WTF..... Those boxes don't matter for area. Are you looking online or did you talk to someone on the phone?
Be sure to check on the HD upgrade.... it might not cost you anything. I might be wrong about the 5 bucks.
