OT: CBJ Lounge XX (All Non-Sports, Non-Political Talk Here)

[Jaxs]

Anyone with TW Cable notice the the sports package that has the NHL Network went up to $8.99? Guess I am going to be dropping it now.

Consider yourself fortunate to be able to make that decision. I have Insight which doesn't offer NHLN. My other cable choice is WOW, same thing. NHLN and those cable companies would rather fight over cost per customer rather than get their product on the air.

Not a fan of NHLnetwork. Too many talking heads.

I miss it for the games. Getting blacked out on gamecenter when games are on NHLN is a joke.

This.

I don't have cable. I don't want cable. I just want a way to watch hockey. I pay my money directly to the league, then the league decides which games it is going to blackout show on it's own network.

Yeah, I don't get it anymore either, luckily I get MLB Network without paying extra so I'm fine with that. I haven't missed the NHL network that much. I've seen the CBJ games I've wanted to. It's not worth the extra $9.

Tip... if sick stay out of hospitals... Sort kidding but as an educated person in the field of Microbiology the new strains of CRE resistant bacteria are for real... granted it's only an issue for debilatated hospital patients undergoing certain types of invasive therapy it's still scary...

Normal treatment can't kill it...

I saw this post this morning and hustled out of the house to make it to work on time. Ended up an hour early, as those of us in Cleveland got absolutely nothing.

In a world where every celebrity pet and any semi-famous inanimate object has a Twitter, I am not surprised.

Matthew may have figured out a way:

I had a bit of a brain-shattering revelation today and I need reassurance that I'm not actually as old as I now feel like I am.

Simply put: how many people here know who Gary Larson is?
(I've had a quote of his as part of my personal email signature for some time now.)

Wasn't he that guy from MTV's total request live that now has his own late night talk show?

You're supposed to pretend you don't know in order to make Viqsi feel old.

I was going to go for the gusto and go with this:



I mean, who doesn't know the creator of Knight Rider, producer of Battlestar Galactica and the Six Million Dollar Man, Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Magnum PI and the Fall Guy, among others?!?
