It doesn't matter whether you have cable, or satellite, or dish or directtv or comcast, all of them will make you feel like idiots when you call. <br /><br />Yes, moron, I made sure the TV is plugged in. No, I won't double check, because the power is on and the TV says 'no signal.' Would it say that if the TV wasn't freaking plugged in???A Beer for the Showerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17029139745335325356noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-38627037364358018212013-07-24T23:31:34.609-05:002013-07-24T23:31:34.609-05:00Gail, I haven't had anything but Directv for 7...Gail, I haven't had anything but Directv for 7 years and for 7 years before that nothing but over the air. I know they are all the same. Greedy little blood suckers. My dad told me one day that you almost gotta have cable or something these days.

It's a great idea if you're paying for the net anyway. Most blu-ray players have wi-fi so you can stream the internet. :)<br />I have two indoor antennas hooked up right now and picture is better than with the dish. Turns out cable and satellite providers compress the signal so there is a loss in quality.

With the internet, NetFlix, and various other entertainments (like Penwasser Place! Now with 22% more poop jokes! Get it today!), TV just seems like an unnecessary expense.<br />And it doesn't show porn on A & E.Al Penwasserhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14052950809151897315noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-82250845274692631082013-07-24T12:45:22.420-05:002013-07-24T12:45:22.420-05:00Gorilla Bananas, I was thinking it would make a lo...Gorilla Bananas, I was thinking it would make a lovely bird bath.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15051904118383493849noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-562073528859409256.post-59019973841583622912013-07-24T03:11:19.167-05:002013-07-24T03:11:19.167-05:00What are you going to do with satellite dish?
