  1. Day 3 of my captivity. I don’t think I can last. Those of us held hostage to @Gugny‘s Birthday are growing weary. It’s not the food, accommodations or even the incessant whining that bothers us; it’s the aroma of smoked meats and cumin that sends most of us over the edge. I must keep my eyes forward and try to drown out the Nirvana and Beatles albums that play all night. These celebrations become overwhelming...not to mention the FatHead of Bill Buckner that is positioned at the entrance to the mess hall. Bastard. The only way to end this misery is for each of us to wish him Happy Birthday again until he turns the volume down. If there is a hell, I’m in it. Painfully yours, Ferguson
  2. It’s in our basement. Same with the splitter. I take it this is a problem? (i.e I can’t get a signal from the cable that runs off the satellite dish outside off garage)
  3. Right. But why run it 50 ft (and dig a trench) when the satellite dish is already attached to the outside wall of the old garage? All I need to do is split and bring the cable off the dish into the garage. The issue is: how do I receive the signal and change the channel...that’s where the mini Genie comes into play (I think).
  4. Well, there’s the standard “shot of the pads, center comes in to sink the rebound” goal. The next Calgary goal will be a “shot from blue line with two guys in front of net and deflection off screen or stick”. Sabres seem to think they should only score with beautiful passing plays and clean shots in top of cage...we need to get sloppy goals - put Girgensons and Reinhardt in front of goal...get screens off their damn skates or sticks. Take slap shots at wing and have Skinner or Mitts grab rebounds. So frustrating when we try so hard to make “pretty plays” that fail and go the other way.
  5. Everything is hard wired in the house here...old garage is 40 - 50 feet from main house. Not sure that would reach via WiFi.
  6. I think you’re right. I may need to get another Genie. As much as the other guys suggestions are appreciated, I don’t have a designated laptop for the garage and my WiFi doesn’t reach out to old garage. So I’ll need to look at an extra Genie. Not sure what the cost is (maybe $8 - $10 /month). Hoping to negotiate a new DTV contract this summer anyway.
  7. I just wanted to pop in and wish @Gugny a Happy Birthday!!
  8. Poll Question: If you could buy Gugny a birthday present, what would it be? a) A boat b) A truck c) A smoker d) other
  9. But I’m not a troll!!
  10. Are we done celebrating this troll’s birthday or what?
  11. Happy Birthday Dunkirk Don!!
  12. How do I switch channels?
  13. Scandella can take shots on goal all night but if no one is in front of net to screen or re-direct it’s a save.
  14. Let’s see...there’s only one guy I know who’s a Venmo snob and his name starts with a “Ple” and ends with “nz”.
  15. Is Venmo an after dinner drink? I’ll take a look.
  16. I honestly have no idea what you guys are talking about. I’m so behind the times. I really don’t understand this stuff. I need to sit down and talk to someone to learn how it works.
  17. That's what I was thinking...wasn't sure if a direct feed off the satellite would give me any kind of reception....but even if it did, I'd have to be able to change channels and without a remote that changes the Genie I'd have nothin'
  18. Need help figuring this out. We have Direct TV at our house. We have 4 tv’s set up on it. So we pay for the main Genie box and three mini Genies. The satellite dish is installed on the side of our old garage. The old garage is what I’m currently renovating (insulating, pine t&g walls, heat, etc). My plan is to make it into a shop. I have an extra tv that I want to hang on the wall so I can watch Bills games, hockey etc while I’m out there puttering around. 1) Can I split the Direct TV signal/cable right off the satellite dish and bring it into the garage/shop? 2) Do I have to order another mini Genie to receive the signal and use remote control? 3) Do I have to have a DTV guy come out and do this for me or can I handle it myself? I don’t understand Firestick or Sling or any of that stuff. Dealing with Direct TV here.
  19. 2008 Tundra 5.7 liter. 176,000 miles and no major repairs needed. Change oil, brakes, tires, etc. I’ve owned both Chevy and Ford in the past and this is a dependable, comfortable and powerful ride.
  20. Ya’ mean @mead107‘s lot??? He basically runs the show there.
  21. Greatest Bills’ WR’s to never demonstrate anything: * Brandon Reilly * Da’Rick Rogers * Duke Williams * Naaman Roosevelt.
  22. I like Katchme Ascore. He’s should be available in the later rounds.
