TV

"Today I had a great day. I was not "unbusy". From the moment I got up, a little after 8am I was almost nonstop helping out. As the result of our moving around the cable tv didn't work as we would have liked it. So called the cable company and they sent a technician.

Actually, the tv didn't work yesterday and ther cable company figured out that one of our cable boxes (we have three) was not working. So, they sent one by FedEx which got here this morning. They said yesterday all we had to do was just exchange them and it should work.

Should, would, it did not! That was why the technician came out and worked on it for over an hour. Thankfully, now it works. After he left, we had to do major cleaning up (again) because he was all over the apartment.

It is very interesting to see on tv gadgets advertised how easy to use them. According to these people just smile press a button and voila, it works. Well, in real life it is not so. There are always untold steps we have to make and those steps we must figure out, and without much help. I would call these false advertising.
