Not in March I wouldn't, lol.
OMG, I get a call from my father, once again asking if he would need anything done when the TV channels go all digital. I've told him now seven times that NO, you have cable now, including digital cable so you're all set. Well, he talked with his brother and got all confused. His bother only has basic cable (figures, the cheapskate) and my father has digital cable, which needs a cable box. he asks "Then why do I need that box on my set?" Um, because you have those upper channels, from 100-1300. "Well heck, why do I have this box, I never even watch those channels?" Um, yes you do, dumbass. Meanwhile, I find out my mom was listening to the cable music channels at the time, which is in the 700's.... Think about your last statement again. (I Never even watch those channels). God, why can't old people understand simple electronic devices.
This guy also believes that when you turn off the cable box that the TV also shuts off. I've tried over and over to show him he was wrong...but he can't get passed the picture coming on and off when you click the remote control button. Sort of like the light coming on in a fridge. |

Wind doesn't suck, space sucks, get it? Space is a vacuum. |

Because we're old?
Mario Andretti has retired from racecar driving. That's a good thing. He's getting old. He ran his entire last race with his left blinker on. (Jon Stewart)

Minnesota is flooding! We must all evacuate to Iowa now! Everyone go South! The Lakes are a flooding! Oh no! We mustn't cry, for our tears ravage the waters even more. |

Tomorrow is the last day of the quarter, and I somehow have pretty good grades. I feel like I've done nothing, but..in two of the classes, the grades are B+ instead of..you know, an A. I NEED an A. Hopefully I do well on the ACT next Saturday too! *pulls hair out*

But, if you have to evacuate to Iowa, start crying when you get there, about having. 
Oh, and um, no offense to anybody who may be from Iowa. |

Is it really that bad down there? Our river is high but it's been much worse in recent years. Granted it's probably like that because it's all dumping on you guys..

Hah, no. It hasn't rained here at all. Just snowed, actually, even though it was warm out. Poor Fargo. |

I haven't been on Netflix for a few months now and just noticed you can now watch the first 9 seasons of South Park on your computer |
