the big guns are comin out
i actually got an assignment done. i had nine days notice. the assignment was done within five. it took about 90 minutes. the product was three minutes of video. i am actually quite pleased with it. there’s something about just sitting there and soaking in the images.
something important happens tomorrow. there will probably be some sort of confusion, maybe some last-minute changes. however, things will run smoothly in the end. everyone will get their speaking done, we will dismantle equipment, and go home. i just hope everything goes fine back where i was supposed to be.
the sabres revealed their new logo and jerseys on saturday. i am not fond of the logo. the jerseys have grown on me a bit, but i’m still weary of them. the center ice logo looks dreadful. however, this will in no way effect the fantastic hockey the team will play this season. i am looking forward to it.
time warner has removed the nfl network from our area’s cable lineup. the excuse is that the nfl network deal would cause a small rise in cable fees for everyone. time warner does not want to raise cable rates for everyone in order to carry a station that only some customers actually watch. they want to put the nfl network on a sports special-interest package for digital customers.
well, why not drop lifetime and put that on a women’s special-interest package? why not drop country music television and put it on a music special-interest package? why not drop fox news and put it on a news special-interest package? we have four news channels, four music channels, and two christian channels; among others. we also have two shopping channels and four channels which show infomercials 80% of the time. at times, the canadian networks may have their feeds cut and replaced by shopping television feeds; supposedly because they go “off the air” for periods of time. if that’s true, then how come i’ve seen late hockey games cut out in favor of shopnbc?
cable rates are going to rise anyways. bite the bullet and pick up nfl network, time warner. for once, i’d like to see other subscribers pay for a channel i like rather than my family paying for their stupid shit channels. then again, it’s probably only a matter of time before we go to satellite…
the bills spanked the dolphins today. defense was huge. i wonder, though. was it a matter of a dominant bills defense or mike mularkey’s frilly limp-shit offense not working? speaking of offense, i’d still like to see some more aggressive calls when the bills have the ball. my “what the fuck” bursts are down, but i’d like to see them decrease further.
tonight we sleep. tomorrow, we dance!
actually, i don’t dance.
