ch-ch-ch-ch-Changes ....

Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Dont want to be a richer man
Ch-ch-ch-ch-changes
(turn and face the strain)
Ch-ch-changes
Just gonna have to be a different man
Time may change me
But I cant trace time
-David Bowie




Scott acted upon one of those marketing fliers from Direct TV and converted us from Cable to Satellite TV. The main driver was the cost savings over Cable, at least for the first year - but there was some give and take:
  • We gained HD in the kitchen and family room TVs. That will be nice for the upcoming Super Bowl.
  • We lost viewing capability in the Master Bedroom. Not a big deal for me, but the kids already expressed their displeasure. We can still watch DVDs, though.
  • We lost our special local Weather channel. I guess we can check the internet if we want to know the exact temperature and wind speed outside.

I don't watch much TV anyways, so this doesn't impact me much. I just hope I learn how to maneuver the remote before we switch to something else.

  1. You can manage the remote. How do I KNOW this? Because even *I* can manage it! LOL

    We LOVE our DirecTV!!! NOTHING is better than HD (& this is coming from a non TV watcher). Enjoy!
