Comcast Blows

So just a quick note to tell everyone how much Comcast blows. Whats the point of telling me that someone is going to be at my house in a three hour window if they never are. I mean I have been a comcast subscriber 4 different times in my life and every time I schedule an appointment they have NEVER been able to make it on time. NEVER. Take today for instance. They gave me a 3 hour window of 9 – 12. I’m like ok… at 12:20 I call them and I’m told that they are in route and will be at my house in 10 minutes. 40 Minutes later I call them again, they tell me the last job he was at had a problem and it will be an additional 45 minutes.  The tech finally shows up 2.5 hours after the window was up, and then he couldn’t install my new phone service because I didn’ t have a Phone Jack next to my cable jack.  Something they should have mentioned before I signed up.  I ended up canceling the service, and I’m in the works of moving all of my stuff away from Comcast.  I have FIOS internet coming into my house on the 11th of February, and today at lunch I’m calling Verizon back to get Direct TV installed in my house… Hopfully on the same day… YAY Verizon.  I mean Verizon is not without fault on their sides either… I spend a significant amount of time on the phone with them yesterday, but all in all, they were pretty good at their job… We’ll see what happens when they come to install.

You’ve Got to be Freaking Kidding Me (What Really Grinds My Gears)

So lets start off the post with looking at this article: http://www.abcnews.go.com/Entertainment/story?id=4183635&page=1

These people are nothing more then people trying to spread more and more hate. I have no problem with the Oscars (I mean come on, with all the writers on strike, they are a lost cause anyways) but Protesting a funeral of someone who acted in a movie is beyond ridiculous. This “Church” is less concerned with the word of God and more concerned with the publicity stunts then I have ever seen in my life. Not to mention after a little bit of research on google they have been protesting funerals of men and women who have died in Iraq claiming “gods judgment” (Notice the little ‘g” and not a capital G cause they people can’t really be referencing the real God, who has unconditional love for all.) on America because we allow homosexuality and such.

I mean you have honestly got to be kidding me. Your going to protest at someones funeral who is fighting for your right to protest. I understand that you have your right to assembly but your going too far. I was always told that my “rights” end where another persons “rights” begin. They would be SOOOO infringing on my rights. Protest walking down the street or any other form but a funeral is taking it too far. I mean they are so far past the line that I can’t imagine them ever going back across it. One of the worst pains in life that a parent could experience is seeing their child die, and your going to make it worst by turning that funeral into a political and media circus. Thank God someone won a lawsuit against these people http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Westboro_Baptist_Church#Lawsuit_against_WBC). I vote that every single person they do this to, sue for the same damn reasons. Eventually these people are not going to have enough money to even pick up the phone to organize a funeral protest.

These people really grind my gears and in my opinion they arn’t going to truly know how it feels until someone does it to them. I vote that the next funeral of one of their members that they all attend, we are sit right next to it and protest. Maybe when they feel what these parents are feeling right now they might get a glimpse of what it feels like. Some things in life are just wrong man.

Now please keep in mind, don’t get me wrong on any of this. I’m more for the freedom of assembly and ability to protest as the next person, but when you bring that stuff to a funeral your way over the line man.

I seriously cannot write anymore cause it would turn into a world of foul language that no one has ever heard of before.

Its a Miracle

WOW.. I cannot believe my eyes… I actually just experienced my first meeting at work in which something actually got done that was productive.  I mean don’t get me wrong, we have meetings all the time, but I never walk out of there feeling like something productive got done.  This time I did .

Nothing really new happening.  My foot has been hurting me recently and that has kinda sucked, cause its hard to drive and walk when your right foot is hurting.  Not sure why it is hurting, but I figure if it still hurts in like a week, I’ll make an appointment to see a doctor.

Another miracle happened last night.  Shadow was 100% calm.  What made him so calm…. No MOM it wasn’t Valium…. It was exercise… Cherokee (Jess’s Parents Dog) came over and played for like a couple of hours.  Its hard to believe that all this time, maybe all he needed was some hella hella exercise…  The down side of Cherokee coming over is it really really really hurt his beg leg, to where he could bearly walk anyways… So maybe he wasn’t tired, but just really unable to move much because of his back leg… I don’t know.

Jess started school this week.  You’d have to ask her how it is going cause I can’t speak for her.

Not much is going on this weekend.  I believe Jess is heading out with Dana for some wedding expo stuff on sunday which leaves me with the day by myself.  Not sure if AJ is gonna want to game the entire day but he might.  Anyone that wants to hang out feel free to let me know now so I can plan.

So I ran through the taxes via Turbo Tax on the internet today.  Should be getting something back, but we’ll just have to wait and see when the final W-2’s hit the mailbox.  I did some estimates off of my last pay stubs.   I’m thinking that the day I get my last W-2 (Just waiting for my current employer to get there shit together) that I’m gonna head over to HR Block and see if they can help find me all these deductions I keep hearing about on the internet.  Who knows, maybe I’ll get some more…..  I wonder if they do something that if you don’t like the refund or got a bigger one some place else they will give you the different or something… If anyone knows or has comments about HR Block, please post comments.

Well I guess thats all for now.  Lunch break is over, and its back to work.  I have to say that this week has been the first week in which I have actually kept busy at work…  Next week will suck cause I’ll be in DC on wednesday… Man I hate dc… and the metro, and everything.

Archives are Done

So I finally finished importing all the stuff from myspace. I tried a couple of different ways with RSS feeds and such but just couldn’t get it to work properly so in the end I just started copying and pasting all of the entries. To be honest, it took me less time to copy and paste the archives then it did to do the damn research… Just figures I guess.

um yea….

So I’ve noticed over the past couple of years that I lack a single place for all of my blog posts. Word on the street from good old Nick is that you can import stuff here, so I’m gonna try to import all my previous postings and stuff and then start a fresh and a new… DUN DUN DUN…

<EDIT>
So I just finished uploading all of my livejournal entries.  Now to move onto MySpace entries… That one could be more difficult but we’ll just have to wait and see what options I have available to me.
