    Non-complaint:  It's been exactly two months since I cancelled my DISH-TV.  I don't even have an antenna so all I get for TV is NetFlix and NetFlix DVD.  What I've noticed is an increase in my peace and quiet and lack of random noise in the background.  No commercials!  Nobody screaming "0% Financing", no "full story at 11", no drug hawkers trying to convince me that I should buy their product despite the over-clocked disclaimer that essentially says "taking this might make you dead".

    Occasionaly I feel that I need to catch up on news (although I don't know why) and I log into a website to see if the world has ended yet.  The static ads are an irritant but the articles are usually sufficient to allay my fears (or stoke them). However, when I click on a video, every freakin' one of them is preceded by a loud fast advertisement assaulting my calmness, and I'm thrust back into the screaming world of 0% financing.  I tend to believe that one of their purposes is to numb us to the news that will follow.

    But that said, since having abandoned DISH-TV I've discovered a whole new world of commercial free drama, mysteries, comedies, bad cartoons and old long dead shows, that I can search through to find something viewable.  Yes, many of them are pure crap.  But when I find a gem and especially a series of gems like "Doc Martin", "Vera", "Wallander", to name just a few I add it to NetFlix's "MyList" which has now grown long enough to last me through the winter.  Some of those shows were originally on the high price networks like HBO or STARS or SHOTIME.  A lot of them were on the BBC-America that I had to pay extra to DISH to get their 200+ selection.  The biggest advantage of this type of viewing is that you can watch the series in order, from the beginning, on demand if you have adequate Internet service.  I can go back and find old episodes of my favorite shows that I know I missed 20 years ago.  It's a virtual smorgasboard of TV.

    I'd had enough.  I couldn't afford $100/month so bye-bye DISH-TV.  I'm already paying for adequate Internet service so the extra cost of the combination of NetFlix and NetFlix-DVD is only about $20/month.  I save $80/month and I have peace and quiet in my home without continual blathering in the background.  The TV runs only when I am sitting in front of it and nobody is telling me to buy anything.  And when I tell you that I also listen to the Buffalo classical radio station "WNED" (via internet) http://tunein.com/radio/Classical-945-s21414/ that is essentially commercial free, you can understand that my brain has been de-commercialized and I didn't even go through any prolonged period of withdrawal symptoms. smiley

    LOL!  I found the same peace in my house five years ago, except I haven't watched actual television since 2010.  We discarded all of the TVs in my house after removing DISH-TV.  I have Xfinity internet only (which Comcast looks at me cross-eyed after I tell them with great vehemence just how much I abhor television in every way every time they try to offer triple-play packages to me).

    These days my visual entertainment comes from YouTube (selected programs) and Amazon Prime if I'm pecking for a free movie that I give a care about.

    By the by, this is the craziest post that I've discovered tonight in my insomnia web-browsing.  Random much?  I love it!

    Omigolly-gosh! <--sorry so, Ned Flanders-ish.  I don't want my post deleted for breaking ToS.

    That is ultimately hilarious!   Hahaha!  At first I was looking for the point in the link, then I realized I was watching an intersection in live stream.

    Do people really watch that all day, because if so - I live in New Jersey - the idiot driving captial of the world  [Everyone hates us...] 

    I could become rich just by setting up a few live streams around my neighborhood - at those notorious circles that we have.  Hahaha!

    laugh

     

    Ah, New Jersy intersections.  The place with no left turns.  surprise  Been there, done that, still confused.  Perhaps there's a reason, but I've never seen it anywhere else, doesn't seem to be catching on.

    Are those called "one-way streets," by chance? smiley

    I don't like those either.

    Well, there are places in New Olreans that are full of consecutive one-way streets all the same way.  You think "hmmm... one way, wrong direction".  So you figure you go up one more block and you'll find a street going the other direction.  WRONG!  two or three streets later and still no street going the other direction you decide that "you can't get there from here".  Oy!

    But no, in New Jersey I'm talking about coming to an intersection that is clearly a two way street but you are not permitted to turn left.  You have to go through the intersection about a half a block, turn right, then turn right, then turn right again and viola! you're going the direction you wanted to go.  Sometimes instead of the three rights, they have the first right, then a twisty little street that wanders between some buildings and eventually dumps you onto the cross road in the direction you wanted to go if you'd been allowed to turn left when you first arrived at the intersection (and waited for the light).  It's all so confusing and poorly marked, but I'm sure it is obvious to the residents of the area.

    I went to New O'Awlins once. smiley​  Very hot and muggy, and my husband wouldn't go to the old cemeteries.  Too dangerous, or so he said.  Superstitious rascal.

    We call those jug handles.  
    the long island parkways haz them too.
    that's when you want 8 cylinders,
    4 cylinders just not strong enough to ramp up to traffice speed. end up sitting on the ramp, waiting, rule35, no one is going to let you cut in.

    those big tractor trailer trucks trying to get on the parkways, see them trying to back up on the jughandle, empathies of pain

    right Mcgyver? wink

    dunno if it's true anymore, heard NJ doesn't let yoo pump your own gas, was all full service

    You can hardly find a full service around here.  There's one I go to sometimes, but it's mostly self-serve.

    i did the cemetaries tour when i went to N'Awlins.  
    saw Marie Levau's crypt but they said she wasn't actually there.  

    went to the voodoo museum, put coins in the wishing thing, didn't work, no wishes.

    coolest thing i saw, can't remember where exactly, it was a worry box.  
    you write down your worry and put in the box, while it's in the box you don't have to worry about your worry; the box is holding the worry, don't need to take it out til it's time to worry about the worry again.

    I found a very realistic model of a male betta at the mall today.  I do not know how they made him but his swim patterns are very realistic.  It is so amazing that he was so cheap yet so realistic.

    Wish I could make a 3d model after him.

    you write down your worry and put in the box, while it's in the box you don't have to worry about your worry; the box is holding the worry, don't need to take it out til it's time to worry about the worry again.

    Sink Saga -- wow, this is hilarious.

    I fought with that sink for days, and the plumbers fixed it in 30 minutes. laugh

    Including the leaks in my re-pipe experiment.  How does one put a washer in backwards?

    My retired engineer brother was trying to fix a leak under the kitchen sink. The whole piping system fell out and our cousin Robbie who does construction including plumbing had to fix it. To be fair, my brother is an "electrical" engineer, so... smiley

    Uh huh.  Did your brother enjoy seeing his "Oh, hell, I can do anything" streak humiliated?

    I sure did.  smiley  Especially when the plumber told me nicely to stick to what I knew and not be offended because he and his sidekick fixed the sink so quick. 

    ROFL

     

    I read it to him and showed him the video. He laughed and told his daughter about it. devil

    A penny saved is a penny earned lot of nothing

    It's so true.  And so is a dime.  I haven't seen a phone booth for years -- let alone requiring dimes, and I haven't seen any vending machine anywhere accepting pennies in the last 20 years or so....

    ...yeah can't even get a cup of joe for less than 2.50$ - 3$  these days   Pinball which used to be a dime a play or three games for a quarter now costs  50¢ to a 1$.  What few phone booths I've seen charge either 50¢ or 1.00$ depending on the company which operates them. 

    The old adage "it's your nickel" came from the days when a local pay phone call was 5¢. (it was still a nickel in New Orleans when I lived there in the late 70s)

    Crikey, Superman would have tough time fighting crime these days as not only are there no more "classic" phone booths, but the pay phones in general are becoming a rare species. The closest pay phones I know of from where I live are about half a mile away.

    Non-complaint:  It's been exactly two months since I cancelled my DISH-TV.  I don't even have an antenna so all I get for TV is NetFlix and NetFlix DVD.  What I've noticed is an increase in my peace and quiet and lack of random noise in the background.  No commercials!  Nobody screaming "0% Financing", no "full story at 11", no drug hawkers trying to convince me that I should buy their product despite the over-clocked disclaimer that essentially says "taking this might make you dead".

    Occasionaly I feel that I need to catch up on news (although I don't know why) and I log into a website to see if the world has ended yet.  The static ads are an irritant but the articles are usually sufficient to allay my fears (or stoke them). However, when I click on a video, every freakin' one of them is preceded by a loud fast advertisement assaulting my calmness, and I'm thrust back into the screaming world of 0% financing.  I tend to believe that one of their purposes is to numb us to the news that will follow.

    But that said, since having abandoned DISH-TV I've discovered a whole new world of commercial free drama, mysteries, comedies, bad cartoons and old long dead shows, that I can search through to find something viewable.  Yes, many of them are pure crap.  But when I find a gem and especially a series of gems like "Doc Martin", "Vera", "Wallander", to name just a few I add it to NetFlix's "MyList" which has now grown long enough to last me through the winter.  Some of those shows were originally on the high price networks like HBO or STARS or SHOTIME.  A lot of them were on the BBC-America that I had to pay extra to DISH to get their 200+ selection.  The biggest advantage of this type of viewing is that you can watch the series in order, from the beginning, on demand if you have adequate Internet service.  I can go back and find old episodes of my favorite shows that I know I missed 20 years ago.  It's a virtual smorgasboard of TV.

    I'd had enough.  I couldn't afford $100/month so bye-bye DISH-TV.  I'm already paying for adequate Internet service so the extra cost of the combination of NetFlix and NetFlix-DVD is only about $20/month.  I save $80/month and I have peace and quiet in my home without continual blathering in the background.  The TV runs only when I am sitting in front of it and nobody is telling me to buy anything.  And when I tell you that I also listen to the Buffalo classical radio station "WNED" (via internet) http://tunein.com/radio/Classical-945-s21414/ that is essentially commercial free, you can understand that my brain has been de-commercialized and I didn't even go through any prolonged period of withdrawal symptoms. smiley

    LOL!  I found the same peace in my house five years ago, except I haven't watched actual television since 2010.  We discarded all of the TVs in my house after removing DISH-TV.  I have Xfinity internet only (which Comcast looks at me cross-eyed after I tell them with great vehemence just how much I abhor television in every way every time they try to offer triple-play packages to me).

    Are those called "one-way streets," by chance? smiley

    I don't like those either.

    Well, there are places in New Olreans that are full of consecutive one-way streets all the same way.  You think "hmmm... one way, wrong direction".  So you figure you go up one more block and you'll find a street going the other direction.  WRONG!  two or three streets later and still no street going the other direction you decide that "you can't get there from here".  Oy!

    But no, in New Jersey I'm talking about coming to an intersection that is clearly a two way street but you are not permitted to turn left.  You have to go through the intersection about a half a block, turn right, then turn right, then turn right again and viola! you're going the direction you wanted to go.  Sometimes instead of the three rights, they have the first right, then a twisty little street that wanders between some buildings and eventually dumps you onto the cross road in the direction you wanted to go if you'd been allowed to turn left when you first arrived at the intersection (and waited for the light).  It's all so confusing and poorly marked, but I'm sure it is obvious to the residents of the area.

    Sounds like what we call a one way system here in the UK.   They can be very confusing the first half dozen or six times you go round them, but eventually you do learn the way.   That of course is when the PTB decide tho change the one way system.

    So, is this scene actually not exaggerated?

    LOL    I used to drive around London all day,  and yes it can be a bit of a nightmare if you aren't used to it.   Hyde Park corner R'about would be worse than that one TBH.   Driving in London is an art form.  Himself hated it,  my son used to say to be "OK Mum, let's divide the labour, you drive the van and I will swear at the idiot drivers".  Even my Italian (roman) line manager thiught that I would probably be able to survive driving in Rome.

    I think I was given twenty chicken nuggets but I did not count them.  I said I would have chicken nuggets instead of fish fingers (they did not have custard) but I did not mean that many.  I was thinking maybe four to seven nuggets.  I ate a good amount of them and there are still five left.

    eta a bit like watching a Sam Beckett play

    Omigolly-gosh! <--sorry so, Ned Flanders-ish.  I don't want my post deleted for breaking ToS.

    That is ultimately hilarious!   Hahaha!  At first I was looking for the point in the link, then I realized I was watching an intersection in live stream.

    Do people really watch that all day, because if so - I live in New Jersey - the idiot driving captial of the world  [Everyone hates us...] 

    I could become rich just by setting up a few live streams around my neighborhood - at those notorious circles that we have.  Hahaha!

    laugh

     

    Ah, New Jersy intersections.  The place with no left turns.  surprise  Been there, done that, still confused.  Perhaps there's a reason, but I've never seen it anywhere else, doesn't seem to be catching on.

    Are those called "one-way streets," by chance? smiley

    I don't like those either.

    Well, there are places in New Olreans that are full of consecutive one-way streets all the same way.  You think "hmmm... one way, wrong direction".  So you figure you go up one more block and you'll find a street going the other direction.  WRONG!  two or three streets later and still no street going the other direction you decide that "you can't get there from here".  Oy!

    But no, in New Jersey I'm talking about coming to an intersection that is clearly a two way street but you are not permitted to turn left.  You have to go through the intersection about a half a block, turn right, then turn right, then turn right again and viola! you're going the direction you wanted to go.  Sometimes instead of the three rights, they have the first right, then a twisty little street that wanders between some buildings and eventually dumps you onto the cross road in the direction you wanted to go if you'd been allowed to turn left when you first arrived at the intersection (and waited for the light).  It's all so confusing and poorly marked, but I'm sure it is obvious to the residents of the area.

    I went to New O'Awlins once. smiley​  Very hot and muggy, and my husband wouldn't go to the old cemeteries.  Too dangerous, or so he said.  Superstitious rascal.

     

    A lot of people are dying to get in there

    I hope not. smiley​  I hear those cemeteries in New Orleans are flooded sometimes.  Or used to flood.

    Non-complaint:  It's been exactly two months since I cancelled my DISH-TV.  I don't even have an antenna so all I get for TV is NetFlix and NetFlix DVD.  What I've noticed is an increase in my peace and quiet and lack of random noise in the background.  No commercials!  Nobody screaming "0% Financing", no "full story at 11", no drug hawkers trying to convince me that I should buy their product despite the over-clocked disclaimer that essentially says "taking this might make you dead".

    Occasionaly I feel that I need to catch up on news (although I don't know why) and I log into a website to see if the world has ended yet.  The static ads are an irritant but the articles are usually sufficient to allay my fears (or stoke them). However, when I click on a video, every freakin' one of them is preceded by a loud fast advertisement assaulting my calmness, and I'm thrust back into the screaming world of 0% financing.  I tend to believe that one of their purposes is to numb us to the news that will follow.

    But that said, since having abandoned DISH-TV I've discovered a whole new world of commercial free drama, mysteries, comedies, bad cartoons and old long dead shows, that I can search through to find something viewable.  Yes, many of them are pure crap.  But when I find a gem and especially a series of gems like "Doc Martin", "Vera", "Wallander", to name just a few I add it to NetFlix's "MyList" which has now grown long enough to last me through the winter.  Some of those shows were originally on the high price networks like HBO or STARS or SHOTIME.  A lot of them were on the BBC-America that I had to pay extra to DISH to get their 200+ selection.  The biggest advantage of this type of viewing is that you can watch the series in order, from the beginning, on demand if you have adequate Internet service.  I can go back and find old episodes of my favorite shows that I know I missed 20 years ago.  It's a virtual smorgasboard of TV.

    I'd had enough.  I couldn't afford $100/month so bye-bye DISH-TV.  I'm already paying for adequate Internet service so the extra cost of the combination of NetFlix and NetFlix-DVD is only about $20/month.  I save $80/month and I have peace and quiet in my home without continual blathering in the background.  The TV runs only when I am sitting in front of it and nobody is telling me to buy anything.  And when I tell you that I also listen to the Buffalo classical radio station "WNED" (via internet) http://tunein.com/radio/Classical-945-s21414/ that is essentially commercial free, you can understand that my brain has been de-commercialized and I didn't even go through any prolonged period of withdrawal symptoms. smiley

    LOL!  I found the same peace in my house five years ago, except I haven't watched actual television since 2010.  We discarded all of the TVs in my house after removing DISH-TV.  I have Xfinity internet only (which Comcast looks at me cross-eyed after I tell them with great vehemence just how much I abhor television in every way every time they try to offer triple-play packages to me).

    These days my visual entertainment comes from YouTube (selected programs) and Amazon Prime if I'm pecking for a free movie that I give a care about.

    i did the cemetaries tour when i went to N'Awlins.  
    saw Marie Levau's crypt but they said she wasn't actually there.  

    went to the voodoo museum, put coins in the wishing thing, didn't work, no wishes.

    coolest thing i saw, can't remember where exactly, it was a worry box.  
    you write down your worry and put in the box, while it's in the box you don't have to worry about your worry; the box is holding the worry, don't need to take it out til it's time to worry about the worry again.

    We did go to Marie Laveau's house of voodoo.  :-)  They had some very interesting artifacts.

    true, but a lot of people died to get into there.   Sorry it was just a lame joke I heard too  many times.

    Q: Why are there a fence around (fill in the blank) cemetery?

    A: Because people are dying to get in

    ...you wouldn't like Portland OR then, especially the downtown area.  A lot of side streets in the surrounding neighbourhoods are narrow enough to be one way as well. On the street in front of my place, cars have to give way to each other at intersections.  Some streets are so narrow (with parking on both sides) there's not even room to ride a bike when a car is coming the other way.  I don't know how people managed back in the days when the size of the average car was larger than it is today.

    Philadelphia, has a lot of very narrow streets, barely able to fit one car down between the buildings.  In any other city they'd be called alleys.  Heaven help you if you're walking in the street and car approaches. image below

    Washington DC has several major traffic circles.  The one at DuPont Circle is the biggest & nastiest.  Not a place for timid drivers.  Twelve, count 'em, twelve exits/entrances!

    Sink Saga -- wow, this is hilarious.

    I fought with that sink for days, and the plumbers fixed it in 30 minutes. laugh

    Including the leaks in my re-pipe experiment.  How does one put a washer in backwards?

    My retired engineer brother was trying to fix a leak under the kitchen sink. The whole piping system fell out and our cousin Robbie who does construction including plumbing had to fix it. To be fair, my brother is an "electrical" engineer, so... smiley

    Uh huh.  Did your brother enjoy seeing his "Oh, hell, I can do anything" streak humiliated?

    I sure did.  smiley  Especially when the plumber told me nicely to stick to what I knew and not be offended because he and his sidekick fixed the sink so quick. 

    ROFL

     

    I read it to him and showed him the video. He laughed and told his daughter about it. devil

    I'd tell my kid, but it wouldn't faze her.  She fixes things, too. smiley​ 

    The two of us have fixed things, but now her significant other helps her.  Thank goodness.

    That kitchen sink situation just got totally out of hand somehow, though.

    A penny saved is a penny earned lot of nothing

    It's so true.  And so is a dime.  I haven't seen a phone booth for years -- let alone requiring dimes, and I haven't seen any vending machine anywhere accepting pennies in the last 20 years or so....

    ...yeah can't even get a cup of joe for less than 2.50$ - 3$  these days   Pinball which used to be a dime a play or three games for a quarter now costs  50¢ to a 1$.  What few phone booths I've seen charge either 50¢ or 1.00$ depending on the company which operates them. 

    The old adage "it's your nickel" came from the days when a local pay phone call was 5¢. (it was still a nickel in New Orleans when I lived there in the late 70s)

    Crikey, Superman would have tough time fighting crime these days as not only are there no more "classic" phone booths, but the pay phones in general are becoming a rare species. The closest pay phones I know of from where I live are about half a mile away.
