Figured you'd miss getting out of the chair and hand tuning and changing the channels!!




You may even pick this up on rabbit ear antennas!!

If it requires getting out of the chair, I just take a nap.

That would be nice. I have to use the rabbit ears here to get ABC,CBS,NBC and fox. Direct wants to charge 2.50 a channel a month for those stations and most of them are in the Chicago area. Don't offer locals.

I finally got tired of making the annual call to Sirius and I just pulled the plug on the service. Can't say that I have even remotely missed it.....

My schedule and the weather finally came together, got the truck cleaned up. It was filthy inside and out.

Damn -- those onion rings look tasty! I'd love them, but I'd sure pay for them later being up and popping Tums all night long......

just dropped to 1.41 (regular) here for Chevron.. Shell is still around 1.60 (regular). I started to fill up at shell last weekend and it was a .61 cent spread from regular to supreme, i wasnt about to pay 2.20 for supreme, went over to chevron and it was $1.69 for supreme. Seems like since Shell Came out with the Nitro + Fuel the prices jumped up big time.

Hard to believe the helmet and jacket are close to a hundred years old.
