You are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT!!!!!!!! COMCAST!!!!! I HATE THEM!
If I were to post a picture of what I think they do to people, it would be banned!!!! LOL
Today, I went and stood in line at the Comcast office for over a half hour and the guy right in front of me
turned in a digital cable box which had stopped recording (which I know the feeling of) and the girl
told him she couldn't get him a new box because they were all out. He lost his good humor at this point and
was getting very aggitated, so I told him about my story about last night and then several others told their
little nightmare sceanarios of dealing with Comcast.
I was suprised the girls didn't shut down the customer service windows. There was blood in the water and the
sharks were swimming in tight!
I was very glad that when I got up there the nice old lady could find my account, but she did tell me they changed my account
number after they sent the bill out. Huh? WHY?
I would kill for a better alternative in this town, but the Satallite services cost almost as much once you add internet.
Guess that's my rant for this week. I'm not allowed any more! HA!!!
I just wonder if I went in and kissed the old lady's ring and spoke in low tones and asked to see the father would I get an
offer I couldn't refuse.

But I cant even pay it! WTF!!!
I hate the cable company bad enough as it is! I have nothing decent to watch on TV and I'm getting charged a a bazillion dollars for my cable and internet! there is only one cable company in town and they are like the Mafia of Media! I hope they all get a bad stomach virus that lasts for days! |

That's true, HB. My Accord is a mere 15,000 away from 60,000 miles.
Scorp, be glad you only need the sensor. My roommate needs a new catalytic converter for his 04 Sentra. |

I NEEDED A NEW KNOCK CENSOR. THAT WAS THE MAJOR PROBLEM. WHILE HE HAD IT IN THERE I HAD HIM CHANGE THE OIL AND FLUSH THE RADIADOR AND PUT IN NEW ANTI FREEZE. (HADN'T CHANGED THAT IN THE 7 YEARS I HAVE THE CAR.) HE CAPPED OFF ALL THE OTHER FLUIDS, FILLED THE TIRES WITH AIR. THEY WERE RUNNING LOW. (I'M AN IDIOT WHEN IT COMES TO MECHANICAL THINGS. CAN'T DO ANYTHING FOR MYSELF) PARTS AND INSTALLATION $350.
OH WELL! I HAVE BEEN LUCKY WITH THIS CAR. HAD THE TIMING BELT CHANGED AT 60K MILES. THAT WAS THE ONLY MAJOR EXPENSE OTHER THAN ROUTINE MAINTENANCE. I TAKE THE WIFE AND KIDS UP TO LAKE GEORE EVERY YEAR SO I DON'T WANT TO BE CAUGHT THAT FAR AWAY FROM HOME WITH A MAJOR PROBLEM. |

come to north america, you need an act of god, or a special order most of the time to get a manual trans. last car I bought, I searched for months to find one that was 4 dr, with air, abs and a stick. I had 16K, and it was in 98, one would have thought I could find one easily, but no. settled for a ford contour (mondeo to you). was ok, not the best.
I miss driving a stick.

I thought the routine of driving with your knees was strictly a North American thing? Don't forget, people have been known to read the newspaper while in traffic too.

Yeah, right... I bet you were one of those that sit in the front row, and raise a hand everytime the teacher asks something...
With us, grades and coolness usualy didnt have a lot in common... The cool ones were those that had nice, shiny clothes, and a regular girlfriend. The rest of us were experts at skipping school, forging excuse notes, cheating at tests... And studying Jackass movies. Dirtbags, in short. But in the end... We all passed, and it was a lot of fun, I suppose.

Furthermore, a right-handed person finds it easier to mount a horse from the left side of the horse, and it would be very difficult to do otherwise if wearing a sword (which would be worn on the left). It is safer to mount and dismount towards the side of the road, rather than in the middle of traffic, so if one mounts on the left, then the horse should be ridden on the left side of the road."
Class dismissed!!! Mwahahahaha!! -Might add that if i feel the need to joust in traffic i'm in a better position...!

Umm... Cars were invented in Germany. Or better said, it was an internal combustion engine on a carriage that was otherwise pulled by horses... But hey, it was a start.
Oh, and Germans drive on the right side of the road, as does entire continental Europe. I think that the left side is only in use in the former British empire.
Oh, and I agree about the lashes. Make them 50, tho.

The US media, wether it be Hollywood, Music, or Politicians all have their "idols" for the "enquiring minds who want to know!" Oversaturation of everyone famous is just an onslaught of media hype. Apparently there are enough people out there that eat this stuff up!
President and Mrs. Obama are just the "brangelina" of the News outlets. And lets face it. The media thinks we are all glutenous pigs for this stuff. Edited at: Wednesday, January 21, 2009 6:33:07 PM |

We CAN!! And CHANGE has come to the White House!!!
Meanwhile, outside on the street, thousands and thousands of weeping supporters began cheering as the announcement of the first, historic flush spread like wild fire through the crowd. One woman, overcome with pride, exclaimed, "I never thought I would see the day that such a great man would pinch such an historic loaf!!!"

Annex your country too? LOL! The Russians would be choking on their vodka if that happened! Besides, you'll have to live in a democratic and capitalist nation then.
As for Obama, I can almost guarantee his picture will be plastered all over the front pages of several hundred major newspapers this morning. I already checked the two in Philadelphia and he's all over it.
