I'm sorry I wrote the title like a 4 year old but this is funny
So as most of you know I'm the president of our HOA board. My neighbor in the townhouse complex is also on the board. I also have 3 dishes and an antenna on the roof of my townhouse
So tonight we have a "quick" (yeah right) meeting to decide which color shingles we are going to get for our new roofs. We decide on one then they start talking about other board things (uh ok....)...then all of a sudden my neighbor says "so what are you going to do with the dishes you have on the roof when they put the new roof on?"
I responded with "I'll take them down the night before and they'll go back up when they're done"
She tells me "no you can't because you're only allowed one dish because the board says ......"
I busted out laughing and explained nicely that FCC Otard overrides the board's "silly little rule". I starting explaining that OTARD protects me and even stated some of their (the board) rules on placement and how many. The board rule says it has to be on the deck or on the edge of the roof which mine are. They are all within the designated rules that protects me and they are all sealed properly so no leaks and even offered to bring the OTARD rule that protects me. I've been helping people with OTARD and HOA's for years
she says "well I have a lawyer friend who will look at it".,..I said "she can look at it all she wants. The rule protects me and allows me to put as many dishes up as I want. They have to be on my exclusive area but if the townhouse complex allows another spot then they waive their part of "exclusive" which you say it can be on the edge of the roof.
One other board member asked can they go on the deck and I explained no because I cant get a signal then (true)
The best thing my neighbor can come back with was "well it looks like s**t"...That set me off quicker than a firecracker. I said "you cant see it from the road or the driveway. You can only see it if you walk around to my yard....oh so Bill (her husband) decides since he makes his own beer he is going to nail a "T" 12-15 feet on top of his chimney to grow hops (same side of the house as the dish farm is). Yeah that dont look like s**t...When you open the garage and if I walked in there I couldnt even find room for a fart because its so packed full...yeah that dont look like hell
She got so mad because I told her if you have an issue with it well then YOU are going to have to file a grievance with the FCC and the board isnt paying for it she said "I have to go home and eat now"
The funny part is she is resigning from the board next month anyways so why does it bother her?
oh well...so even being the board president I need OTARD in my pocket
I guess she learned dont argue with me about my dish farm

had to bring this one back up.....its funny that on the board we have 2 "enthusiasts" (geeks) when it comes to stuff (out of 5 folks). I was out working with the 6 footer and the "new guy" on the board came to pay his dues and saw the dish. We chit chatted and he is a ham operator and wanted to put a ham antenna on the roof. I thought OTARD covered it and he knew of OTARD. I told him it couldn't be no higher than 12 feet above the roof line and he had no issues.
Last month I wasnt at the meeting (out of town) and he asked to put up a smaller ham antenna on the roof (he has 2 mag mount one now) and the board approved it as long as he didnt go 12 feet above the roof line. I read OTARD and ham antennas arent covered under it...whoops But it was approved so the board cant argue. They cant argue my dish farm either now as I have approval to put whatever I want on the deck (that rule was already fine) or in front of my garage using the "you can park a car one deep in front of the garage" rule

Ice myself being a ham operator, there is similar rule for ham antennas and towers called PRB 1 it mainly covers antenna/tower issues within a town but I believe there maybe provisions regards HOA's.

Walk up to him and say, "I'd like to introduce myself."There's a guy about 3 blocks from me who has a heckuva system on his roof

Then, pull out a photo of your roof showing your dishes.
I'm certain he'll be happy to meet you! :up

But.....if you like Tulsa King....looks like you would probably like this as well. I don't mind spin-offs as long as they don't involve a sassy niece who moves from the big cityAnother Tulsa King spin off.
I thought I would come here and find lots of complaints about the update to the dish anywhere mobile app, but am not seeing any. It used to look just like the desktop webpage. Now you can no longer filter by sports channels or movie channels. Plus that they made it look like a big button telephone and you see fewer channels in the screen which requires more scrolling. Yes I realize you can look at sports then select which sport you want to look at, I just liked being able to see all sporting events in the guide with all other channels being filtered out. Am I alone in the wilderness on this?

Anyone else watch this show? Any guesses as to what was in the box Gibbs gave to Abby that was on her desk? It look liked it was glowing.
I also heard that someone was leaving the show at the end of this season. Any guesses as to who thats going to be?

Tony as the director.
Would you rather have LaRoche ???Tony as the director.
No. Bring in someone new.
Tony is not serious enough for me. Parker is too close to the team and Tim is too young to take over IMO.
I don't think Tim and Tony are that far apart in Age ...No. Bring in someone new.
Remember what Tony said to Tim when they first got back together ...
Tony said: I am the New Tony, Tim .... (something to that effect)
Tony has changed, he's been running his Security Business ... I'm sure he has grown up.
Give it time ... your judging the New Tony from the old Tony.
It sounds like Tim won't be around the Team much longer either.

Might be worth a watch when it comes out. Looks like typical big corp against the little guy movie BUT....there is a reason this plot type is so oft repeated, it draws audiences.

If you're going try to read / listen to the book (can't recommend the audio book enough) before this comes out, I'd avoid trailers.
Trailer below, spoiling it to make sure you read the above bold message first. The book / audio book are fantastic. Go into this blind if you can IMO!
Kind of disappointed at how much they show. A lot still to see, but man, some good reveals in the book that are just served up here.

Browns lose a close one with... The Jets. That is a classic Browns loss (granted, any loss is a classic one it seems). 49'ers, Vikings, and Chiefs remain undefeated. The AFC north have a three way tie at 3-2 for second place.
A big win for the Patriots, and they are now 3-2.

I had quit watching this show years ago because I ended up more annoyed than entertained. Well......I'm STILL more annoyed than entertained. I DO find it interesting to see how things work behind the scenes at many businesses. What annoys me is how utterly out of touch CEOs are with the companies they run. At the end of almost every episode the head of the company is amazed at how hard the employees have to work and many times have to work around impossible guidelines set forth from headquarters.
I found this one interesting because the new CEO had big plans for this company, Muscle Maker Grill, and it looked like the stores were all pretty busy. Recent history hasn't been good to this company however. I bet the covid lockdowns were the real killer.

HERE TO HELP YOU!
Cutting Edge
Sometimes a thread gets so many posts in it that is can cause issues for the server so that why today we introduce The Song Name Game Part 3!
So let the game continue!
The last song was added by Bobby who posted...
One Meat Ball - Andrews Sisters
CONTINUE ON AND HAVE FUN! WELCOME HOME TO SATELLITEGUYS.US!
Here are the original rules for the game as posted by WebbyDude back in 2006. http://www.satelliteguys.us/threads/68645-Song-Name-Game
Just name a song title and the band who performed it. The next person does the same thing, but needs to list a song title or band name which includes a word from the previous entry. Pick songs from any genre.
Example:
Long Live Rock and Roll -- Rainbow
Rainbow in the Dark -- Dio
Another example:
Ride the Lightning -- Metallica
Lightning Strikes -- Ozzy Osbourne
Get it?
An additional note: we all know that song titles, sometimes, use profane words. Because this is a family friendly website it is advised that you clean up that title up a bit. This is accomplished by using something like sh!t instead of the real word. Thanks....
