Some clouds today, but this has been going on now for 4+ hours (no rain and not even "heavy" overcast)...

    They actually showed up (Larry, Moe and Curly) to install my SuperDish Saturday. Geez. They bolted it to my house with 3 out of 4 bolts (anyone know the size of that bolt so I can get one at Home Depot?). Screwed in the switch with 1 out of 2 screws. And 2 of the cables off the LNBs are...

    CNN headline: TiVo: Jackson stunt most replayed moment ever
