Time Warner, attempting to attach GamePlan to my cable package, not only signed me up for MLB Extra Innings and ESPN Full Court (TWICE), they shut off my cable trying to reset the box, and now I can't even get rag'lar ESPN. Then we had a full quarter's worth of headaches over at the new Yahoo digs with the liveblog software, which is why my first appearance is characterized by test comments saying things like "MY COMMENTS ARE IN BOLD BECAUSE I AM IMPORTANT" and then disappearing for an hour at a time while I wrestled the f'ing cable company.
I am soothed by the following:
Taco victory (next, savethebaconwrappedhotdogs.org, kay guys?).
I love the taco trucks, but nothing touches the bacon wrapped hot dog in terms of stand food at 2 AM when you're wasted.
(The only superior sober-up food is Roscoe's.)
And here I thought no cable company could rival Charter for sheer incompetence. I didn't order Gameplan because I knew they'd fuck it up and I don't want to give them more money than I have to.
