not to switch subjects, but the new season of "deadlist catch" starts tomorrow night at 9.  probably my fav. show for the past couple years.  I love to fish, and it\'s amazing the balls these guys have to go out in those storms

My level of irriation is through the fucking roof. All of the channels that I watch the most keep freezing and pixelating and shit and the stupid cable channel can\'t seem to fix it!

I\'m really glad that I pay an arm and fucking leg for service that doesn\'t work.

Goddamn bastards!

Call them up!! If the shit is their fault they will credit you for the days that you had shitty service. I\'ve done it before and lied...had shitty reception for 2 days...told them it had been going on for 2 weeks...got a credit for 2 1/2 weeks! :thumbsup:

They have been here to fix it more than once. It has been like this since I first got cable. Certainly over a year.

My internet connection is also very spotty sometimes which can be pretty annoying when I\'m doing something for school or whatever.

Have they checked all of the wires and connectors in your house? When I first got cable internet at my house the wires and connectors were too old and I replaced them all.

yeah that tends to happen when you live in a forest.

I saw part of the series last night on the African Grasslands... it was really cool watching the pride of lions attack the huge elephant in the middle of the night!  

Planet Earth: The Future is on tonight, starting at 10pm... I guess it\'s about human impact on the environment, and what the future will hold for us & our children.  It looks cool, but I\'ve missed it b/c of pool on Mondays.

i forgot about this thread, until last night that is when i happened to catch some of it while my gramps was watchin it where we are stayin in south carolina (would have never happened at the mansion seeing as how its apparently become casual at our house to take money people give for bills and spend it elsewhere)

anyhoo, it was very interesting, and some of the footage was absolutely amazing... thanks to .info for givin me the heads up on this show... made for some quality conversation at the dinner table last night

dammit!  i keep missing this show and i wanna see it so bad! what episodes have they shown so far??  definately want to buy the whole collection, but the BBC version.  i prefer David Attenborough over Sigourney Weaver...he throws in his own thoughts (so to speak).  plus the british accent is very appealing :biggrin:

I\'m sure they\'ll be re-running the whole series a few times! They seem to show every show at least 1,002 times.

i went to the website and saw some of the clips they have up there...definately wanna check the episode about the flat frogs (i love reptiles!).  and i\'d like to see pole to pole...with the polar bears (b/c when i grow up and maybe get a job i\'d love to do some research on those magnificent beasts!)  i love documentaries like these...my evolution class was actually required to watch the whole cosmos series..how cool is that!:thumbsup:
