As the only show I watch on a weekly basis comes on my cable messes up again, Comcast is not doing a very good job with the cable in this area maybe it is time to invest in a satellite dish and tell Comcast where to stick their poor service. Every time I want to watch a show I have to deal with poor reception or no picture at all, add in that they do not carry Sports South and it is the death blow as far as I am concerned.

Just read a report that cars that have bumper stickers are much more likely to be involved in road rage incidents. The larger the number of bumper stickers the higher the chance they will be involved. Factor in the color, red cars are much more likely to be involved, add the use of cell phones to the mix and you get road rage times ten. It is almost not safe to go out on the road anymore. Better to stay home and knit than venture out to work.

As I was trying to get to the bank before 5 pm I ran into a grid lock and later I found out it was caused by a broken gas main. It is bad enough to have Friday traffic compounded by a road completely shut down. Plus they had to evacuate the bank so it was a totally wasted trip. I think I will just go to bed and see if tomorrow is a better day. I do not know how many more days like today I can have before I have a complete melt down.

If you caught the MMA fiasco on CBS last night you will of been as disappointed as I am. I had never watched the MMA and I thought it would be a good chance to check out a new sport. I was sorely disappointed in the program, not only did it run very late it was all pomp and no fighting. After 70 minutes of broadcast there had been about 2 minutes of fights, very disappointing. I hope if they do it again it will be more fights and less show, if I wanted all show and no fight I would watch professional wrestling.

One of the pure joys that I have with my job is training new drivers, some do not show up the first night. I understand that 2 am is a tough time to start working, but if someone says they want the job you think they would at least show up and try it. Some do not come back the second night, delivering newspapers is not as easy as it seems. I would guess we hire 10 people to fill each position that we have come open, and this week I had 3 open not a lot of fun. In fact it makes for a very frustrating week.
