Moved This Weekend

[Hamma]

Well we are all moved - Moving sucks ass. Although driving the bigass UHaul was fun as hell

So here we are all moved in and setup, LCDTV mounted on the wall. We go out to dinner and come back and find our HD Cable box showing some strange numbers on the LED screen. So I call comcast, they schedule a tech.

We had our old HD box from our last place in the living room so I take out the old box to hook up. We start moving the broken box and find that it is soaking wet. It turns out that there was a single leak in the ceiling. When we were out it rained, and the single drip went directly into the cable box and we never saw it until we moved it.

Hopefully the box dries out and starts working.

Moving Sucks.

Ouch... that sucks man.

[Hamma]

I'm just glad it didn't get on the $2000 dollar LCDTV

[Giovanni]

Do you have the Warranty? It might just be covered (I hope for you).

[Ivan]

It's the Cable Company***8217;s box most likely. So they'll probably just replace it for Hamma or at the very worst make him pay for the new one.

[Giovanni]

I see... you have to buy the boxes up here... Starchoice was a bitch too... 250$ for a regular box (no frills no nothing).

Ugh... I'm not coherant anymore... time for bed.

sigh how many times do I have to tell you... pull out or use a condom.

dont skeet in the box.

oh and in an unrelated note I too will experience the joys of moving soon. twice. in 2 weeks i get my apt and a month after that I move my gf in with me (from NY btw, ugh)... I wonder how fast that uhaul will go on a highway............

[Hamma]

They don't even go very well at 65.

I turned on the box this morning and it seemed to be ok - I didnt plug it into the TV yet though will try that tonight.

Im glad to be moved was alot of work time to relax

Moving does suck...and to have a key piece of your entertainment world ripped out from under you - adds salt to the wound.

With Adelphia Digital Cable, you rent the equipment. I've brought boxes back when the next generation of box comes out. Plus my dogs use the remotes as chew toys. Adelphia doesn't seem to care - they make tons of money in renting fees.

yea I just recently moved. That 3 days without video games was hell

[Ivan]

OMA, if you're going through Western PA be careful speeding on the highways. The state troopers have really stepped it up a notch in the past few weeks and plan on enforcing hardcore all summer long.

[OneManArmy]

eh i just got a ticket yesterday from the most hillbilly-est state trooper you can imagine.
