  • Well, once again, my HD channels are not working. I called Comcast last
    night and explained to them that I was upset and felt that I deserved
    compensation. I even got a supervisor on the line and was told that all
    they could do is give me credit for the HD, which, in my opinion is not
    actually credit because its like I'm essentially not paying for a
    service I'm not receiving anyway. According to Comcast, they had been
    at my house 6 times in the month of April. 6 fucking times! I explained
    that I felt I should be given something extra for my trouble. Being in
    customer service, I know there is always something they could give me,
    so I pressed on and in the end, he gave me not only credit for the HD,
    but also a discount on my HBO and internet for the next 6 months. I
    think he said it would wind up being a $200 value, which made me more
    than happy. They are coming out AGAIN on Friday to "fix" the HD. There
    is so much more to this story, but its a lot to type.

    Today at work, I was given a chocolate fudge Pop Tart, which was the
    first Pop Tart I have eaten in months.........well, since Scootyfest
    back in February. It made me wonder, I love Pop Tarts, why don't I eat
    them more often? Sure, they are not very healthy, but I eat plenty of
    other unhealthy things. Perhaps I should make a commitment to eating
    more Pop Tarts.

    This girl at work was given some book at her apartment complex about
    the 10 Commandments and how we need to reconfirm ourselves to the
    Commandments. I told her to bring it in and I would read it and lo and
    behold, it was on my desk this morning. Now, I will give a full report
    once I'm done with it, but its weird, because religious material is the
    only thing that makes me laugh and pisses me off at the same time. Now
    before any of you think I might be "finding God" I can assure you that
    the only reason why I'm reading it is to learn more so that I can
    strengthen my argument AGAINST Christianity and organized religion and
    the only way to do that, is to learn more about it. Still, there is a
    lot of material in this book for me to really make fun of and satirize.
    Its a short book, I should be done with it real soon.

    Somebody, please help the fucking Cubs. For my own sake!!! Fuckers!!!
