Poll question: What should I do while waiting for the cable guy?
So, I'm home, waiting for the cable guy (or gal) to come install a new cable outlet in my 2nd bedroom/home office/TV room. What should I do to pass the time?

2. Read Big Dawg's book...
if your cable company's response is anything like it is here...you have a long wait.

9. If you choose to do that
be careful with some of the side effects. I would hate for you to have a "Something About Mary" incident.

6. Call the cable company again. Tell them that you want a
package which does not include Fox, MSNBC, etc. If they don't have one, tell them to cancel your service. Why pay for right-wing propaganda? :shrug:

10. Call the other cable company
And ask them how long before they'll have service in your area.

15. I was going to suggest reading the unabridge version of
"War and Peace". You might have to pick up some other reading material to fill up the rest of the time.
