See, if you lived in Atlanta, that wouldn’t happen. You would just have 10 NASCAR channels.

Jesus Christ, why are you complaining about high cable prices? Just spring for the deluxe package already, Moneybags.

I’m more dog than cat. Take that back, I’m more pig. I like to lay around watching TV and eat and get my belly rubbed. Like my pig I also like the ladies.
At least your cable has Comedy Central – we just got it last week. And what seems like five more news channels.

Katie, since I JUST got cable after not having it for 2 years, I can totally empathize with you about the costs, etc. I got cable and got HBO, only to watch the last 8 episodes of S&TC. I had to get a ditigal receiver in order to view HBO, so my monthly total is something around $57.00!! I was completely flabbergasted. If I only wanted regular cable, the bare minimum, it would be $43.00 a month. Highway robbery, if you ask me. Anyway, our cable company here has a monopoly on the market, so I am stuck paying out the ass just to watch a few decent channels. It sucks, but I did indeed succumb, so I am the sucker here.

I always thought it was curious how many lesbians preferred dogs to cats even though I firmly believe my theory stated in this blog entry. Very curious. Perhaps the reason straight girls LOVE cats and lesbians prefer dogs is because the straight girls are already sick of the male personality so they need more of the feminine in their life. And vice versa.

There’s actually a little-advertised package you can get from Comcast that includes about 25 channels (about half of which are home shopping/political/public access channels), and it only cost 12 bones. Not many great channels, but at least you have clear reception . . . and if you’re lucky like me you’ll get expanded basic for free. Oops!

I prefer dogs to cats because I don’t understand cats – just like I don’t understand women. Subtlty as well as spelling are lost on me. Dogs are direct, cats are subtle little pains in the ass. A dog is mad, he chews your shoe and you know it instantly. Your cat gets mad and after 10 days you finally discover what that smell is coming from behind your speakers.
Cats – like women – make you guess what they are feeling and most of the time I guess wrong. Kinda like this girl I’ve been spending time with. She got all mad because I didn’t respond to her advances. 1. she has a boyfriend, 2. I just found it really strange she was asking me all kinds of question about my ex that started witht the phrase “if we were dating” but didn’t think she was throwing signals. Women, cats…I just don’t understand

Does a cactus count as a pet? That’s about as much responsibility / commitment as I can stand…
