So we ordered the HBO On Demand more than a week ago because we wanted to watch, for like the fifth time, season 4 of The Wire.
So for more than a week, though, The Wire wasn't available -- despite being heavily advertised all month by the HBO.
So (enough sos for ya?) we called the Cablevision last night, and a nice gent named Wilbur helped us out.
He asked us to turn everything off and unplug the system, which we did. He asked us to wait a few minutes, which we did. Then he asked us to plug in, wait three minutes, and turn on the cable box, which we did.
Voila. The On Demand que was miraculously updated!
But wait, Wilbur. What was the problem?
"We did it together," he replied.
OK. Yay, team. But what was the problem?
"Well we handled it together so it's OK. We did it together."
Thoroughly Jedi-mind-tricked, we then *took* the survey on customer service *and* rated Wilbur as high as we could. We guess we didn't want to let down the, um, team?

So we've been quiet on the whole steroids in baseball thing, mainly because we're somewhat jaded and somewhat disillusioned at the number of role models who, in essence, f*cked all the other players by cheating.
Here's a theme we'll get to someday, though. Brian Roberts, a formerly jacked up 2B for the Orioles, said he did steroids once in 2003, but then it wasn't for him.
You know what? Saying you did steroids once is like saying you masturbated once or smoked the sticky icky once.
Show me one person who could resist the temptation of trying those things again, especially if it helps you jack balls out of Camden Yards.
Right?
Feel free to discuss amongst yourselves while we laugh about typing "jack balls" all day.
do you ever tip those guys?
