So I called back tonight......I got a regular CSR at first and asked to be transferred to customer retention. He transfers me and I ask the girl if she is with customer retention, of course she isn't, so I ask again to get transferred. I'm on hold for about 25 minutes and finally a customer retention rep answers and I ask for free ticket and RZC, she doesn't hesitate and gives it to me for a 1 year contract. I'm satisfied.

I called a second time today. Got through to a retention person, apparently.
He gave me the basic Sunday Ticket for free this year, for a 12-month commitment to stay with DTV.
Cool. I'm a happy (and retained) customer. My wife is happy.
I've been with DTV for 16 yrs or so, just so I can see the Bills every week.
I don't like haggling, but it is worthwhile, I must say.
It's a pre-season ritual now, I suppose.
Good news. I'll call back again tonight. I will accept no less than free ST and I am prepared to cancel if I don't get it. No bluffing required.

I opted for the epidural years ago.

If only this team had a proven track record over the last 13 seasons to give us just a little clue as to how this season will end.
-
Yeah I called last night and could only get a half price and free max offer. I told them that I'd need to think about it, so I'll give it a few days and try again. I even tried the "I'm a Bills fan and I end up just watching Red Zone channel every week anyway" approach.

Others are more qualified to provide better detail on your specific questions, but if you do need more up to date HDMI cables you definitely don't need to pay top dollar at the big box stores. Get them at monoprice.com for a fraction of the cost.

This is the challenge. For teens today. Sadly he is not likely the first idiot who has ever done something like this. He may be the first idiot to out himself after doing so by going to Facebook.
Sad all the way around...
That I highly doubt.
Yes, the guy who just killed his wife recently and posted the picture of her corpse on FB.

I've looked forward to grilling, smoking and cooking more than the Bills games for a few years now and life is grand!!
Nice. I feel like a kid on Christmas. I'm really looking forward to using this thing.
So needless to say I've been doing a lot of internet reading on the BGE. I've come across a lot of great reviews for this accessory pack. Any Egg owners here have any experience with one of these or something similar? It seems like it really provides great versatility and expanded capacity to a BGE

Go Big Green Egg or don't go at all.
I've almost pulled the trigger on one of those more than a few times, maybe this is the year.
Well I'm glad that I never pulled the trigger. Yesterday I was given a brand new BGE as a surprise gift. Is it wrong that I'm more looking forward to smoking ribs, briskets and shoulders on Sundays than I am to be watching the Bills games?

I don't think Walt, even in full Heisenberg mode, has it in him to kill Jesse
The Jesse we know now, no. The Jesse who finds out about everything Mr. White has kept from him, yes.
-
Absolutely awesome show but just one nit to pick: can we stop with the depressed mopey Jessie, pretty please? Been there done that. Let's hope it doesn't last too long.
I think the ricin Walt went to fetch is intended for him.

When I was in High School, in every boys bathroom, every crapper did not have a door.
Every year I was there. I kid you not.
The stalls in our baseball locker room in high school didn't have doors. This one kid on our team would always proudly take a chit in the door-less stall. As if that wasn't bad enough, it was right at the front of the locker room so you had to walk by him to get to your locker and he'd try to have a conversation with you when you walked in.
Across on my floor there were a ton of IT people, & my place outsources alot of the IT work & they contract these people in from India(don't ask me where they find them). This has been going for about 4-5 years now. Ever since they did this the bathroom have been disgusting(keep in mind at a white colar atmosphere, not some assembly line). I mean plugged up toilets, boogers on the wall, crap on the seats. One time I walked in there late in the day & there was actually crap on the floor. I mean what kind of culture do these people have? I would think common courtesy would stop them from doing stuff like this. I mean it has got to the point where I was fearful of even taking a leak at work not knowing what I was going to find. Well they moved all the IT people out 4 weeks ago & magically the bathrooms are cleaner then they ever been. So it is not just me stereotyping either. That is the good news, the bad news is we are supposed to move to their location shortly after Labor Day so I better enjoy the work bathrooms this summer I guess.LOL
They likely aren't actually sitting on the seats, but rather squatting on them. In college we had a guy on our floor from Indonesia who would squat on top of the seat and crap. At first it was mildly amusing as it led to people trying to get into what appeared to be an unoccupied stall that had been locked from the inside. Then he started leaving his empty slippers on the floor so people would know he was in there. It stopped being funny though when our chitters were unmercifully hit with a barrage of soiled seats since his aim was not so good. We dubbed him the bombardier.

I would have been hoping to hear either Elephant or Relatively Easy from the new album, but still you can't go wrong with any of them. Album of the year.

Unreal set! He did:
Live Oak
Stockholm
Different Days
Traveling Alone
Super8
Flying Over Water
In A Razor Town
AL Pines
Is that the whole set or just the highlights?
-
Funny how they keep saying we are 2nd or 3rd worst in the league but we always seem to draft 8-11.
PTR
Exactly. We can't even be the best at being the worst.

heading out in an hour for lunch with Mr. Isbell, should be an awesome show! if anyone is interested you can listen to it live at
Man I'm jealous Pooj. Enjoy the show.

Call and pay for it.

Thank yooouuaaaahhhh is more annoying than any of these. This is usually uttered by overly dramatic young women who often also have the equally annoying "vocal fry" habit.

Based on first picture, yes. Second picture, no. I need a third to break the tie.

I don't care for Chapel Hill particularly, but I really like Asheville. Great place to hang and check out some good music, great scenery. Except for the dirty hippies of course!
Asheville is a great beer town as well. Sierra Nevada, New Belgium and Oskar Blues are building their east coast brewery operations there. As far as hippies go, the last time I was there with my wife we were walking through downtown and she wanted to stop by this area where there was a free concert going on. I lasted less than a minute as the songs they were playing were nothing but communist manifestos put to music. The moral monday protests there will be preaching to the choir.

It is just now starting to change in Atlanta. Why? because the Falcons have a great owner who is building a tradition of winning.
For years you would go to a Falcons game and if they where playing the Steelers, Dallas, or San Fran, etc... the stadium would be split 60/40.
Not so now.
As for Buffalo, the city is a nice place. If you can make money in Buffalo it is a great town. So to me sports players have no reason not to go to Buffalo. The snow is over hyped. Yes the weather is not great, but there are many days in the summer in Atl i woould trade with Buffalo.
I'd trade every last day of the summer in Raleigh for Buffalo weather.

Chidi Ahanotu (now broke) did the Toronto to Orchard Park commute to get a taste of big city living.

Thats where most Bills fans are on Sundays here in Raleigh
I've always said I was going to go out to Buffalo Brothers one Sunday, but I haven't made it in 10 years.

Someone told me a few days ago that it closed. A good friend of mine knows the owner, I'll ask and report back.
edit: Spoke with my friend, he didn't get this from the owner himself, but thought that Lynnwood Grill was taking a lot of their business.
Start my masters program tomorrow

The sea was angry that day my friends.... like an old man trying to send back soup at a deli.
