Thursday, I have an appointment to get direct tv installed. Would really like to be delivered from the evil of Charter cable, but I'm not sure I can get reception from my patio. Anybody got a chainsaw?

I have direct and its a good. Especially during major golf tournaments cause they have the special channels that follow the main group, specific holes, 18, etc. Ive never watched more golf than I have this year.

They'll get it done.
haven't you seen that commercial where they roll out the blue carpet and one man turns into 12 and they start dancing around while setting up your tv? They'll gay it up, but it will get done.

I've also got directv. It's the shit compared to Time Warner.
Screw you Ted Turner and your Looney Tunes hating ass.

I have Time Warner and it's pretty shitty, but I bet you get nothing on Directv in this rain.

Storms can sometimes cause some problems with the dish but it rarely happens. When it does I turn to the DVR.

Mine messed up yesterday with all the rain and wind. Didn't last long, and like Craig said you have the DVR.

ok. But what happens when the storm comes through while you're recording something you don't want to miss?
