Maybe the best one yet...ALL the movie channels & the sports package are free this weekend, far as I can tell.

I used to answer phones for them. You'd be surprised how many people subscribe to the porn channels, and it ain't cheap. But, you'd be even more surprised at how irate they get when the satellite signal isn't sending their images at 2 in the damn afternoon. People in this country are bizarre. But that's a cool promo.

Awesome.

I was planning on doing absolutely nothing most of saturday and sunday to take the edge of a very busy week.

Maybe there will actually be something good on.

Diggity, where do you find out this info? I never get anything in my bill that tells me this stuff.

72 hours of pure entertainment bliss

With TOTAL CHOICE PREMIER, you'll have access to 7 HBO channels, 12 Starz Super Pack channels, 9 SHOWTIME UNLIMITED channels (including Sundance) and 3 Cinemax channels. Plus catch the hard-hitting sports action of ESPNU as part of 25 specialty and regional sports channels in SPORTS PACK.

edit: it did come in your bill last month but they sent me this e-mail yesterday.

Yep...it comes in the email thingy. You gotta sign up for the newsletter, d. And even then, a lot of the time the info's not that prominent in the email.

I'm taping :

Anchorman
Harold & Kumar
Dig!
Kung Fu Hustle
War Of The Worlds
Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy

Gawd knows when I'll get around to watching them...the last time I filled up 2 tapes & since then I've watched ONE of the movies on those tapes.

Any cool football (soccer) stuff on this weekend I should know about?

I think my tivo is pretty damn full right now due to all those history channel ten days that changed the world, a bunch of episodes of that city of men series that I recently discovered was picked up by Sundance, and a bunch of movies I recorded last freebie weekend that I never got around to watching.

I know the Snapper is on one of the movie channels this weekend, people should tivo that if they haven't seen it. Hilllllllllllllllllllarious.

np: Mingus "Tijuana Moods" Disc Two
