Looks good, better than that brown wallpaper from Aunt Minnie's parlor. I really liked the background map that was here for a few minutes, but the hummingbird is cool, too.<br /><br />When are you going to write a novel about a father and son who treasure hunt (your home page says you actually do that), who find something with major political ramifications, with a love affair thrown into the mix... I look for stuff that like when it's 90 degrees and I head to the drugstore for a paperback (my town is too tiny for a bookstore).Hollynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-68541268219446049342010-06-16T11:39:24.674-05:002010-06-16T11:39:24.674-05:00Get a smartphone.

I have contacts in IL and I'd like my colleagues there to know about your experience. Please contact me, include the phone number on the account so I can assist. <br /><br />For those of you who are experiencing problems with Comcast, please feel free to contact our team at the email below. We are here to help! :)<br /><br />Sorry for the troubles we caused.<br /><br />Mark Casem <br />Comcast Corp. <br />National Customer Operations<br />We_can_help@cable.comcast.comComcastCares1https://www.blogger.com/profile/08674914397949330483noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-51335498295070077722010-06-15T08:21:28.663-05:002010-06-15T08:21:28.663-05:00You're pretty damn awesome Terry.

Thank you, thank you, thank you. <br /><br />I'm leaving for my trip this afternoon and I'm hoping that I can get this story together once and for all. If not, well, I'll keep working at it. <br /><br />As for comcast? I could gripe for hours on end about these greedy corporations. But I won't. Customer service is out the window for the new millennium, dontcha know? And that's all I have to say about that.<br /><br />I'll miss you guys while I'm gone. Hopefully nothing too exciting happens while I'm away. I'm selfish like that. ;)<br /><br />I did post some of the second chapter. Not near complete but I have to just keep posting. It keeps me moving. <br /><br />Thank you again for the wonderful award and we'll chat when I get back. Good luck with those evil greedy bastards.G.~https://www.blogger.com/profile/17630804996307279182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-46719226422669065992010-06-15T07:30:18.898-05:002010-06-15T07:30:18.898-05:00I haven't had Comcast for years because I won&...I haven't had Comcast for years because I won't support evil empires ... except that now we have AT&T U-verse TV and internet.

My mother has a bundle and it's so expensive. I have phone and internet through the phone co. and dish instead of cable. Whenever I have trouble my guys come right out, or help me over the phone right away. My mother has to wait hours/days. My stuff separate is $40- cheaper than her bundle. Go figure. And she refuses to give over.Anne Gallagherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05816355522284492131noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-83874179680334461152010-06-15T05:41:18.479-05:002010-06-15T05:41:18.479-05:00Wow.

I've been on hold so many times where it goes for over an hour and then hangs up on me. You get a form to fill in on their website with a lame promise of getting back to you in 48hrs, but they never do. BUT, say one smart comment about them on twitter and you get an immediate response. That's how I get hold of them nowdays.Charmaine Clancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06642615452680721583noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-80911369961924068232010-06-14T21:56:36.694-05:002010-06-14T21:56:36.694-05:00Ding ding ding!

I thought it was just the folks in Maryland. I'm jealous that your reps are from Mumbai... ours are from Pakistan.Tracyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03726858055689145824noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6169933482075695962.post-79372589628819770802010-06-14T21:18:15.282-05:002010-06-14T21:18:15.282-05:00Hehehehehehe.

Out here in the back of beyond, it's Internet by Aircard or the one satellite company that will risk their guys getting gored by a bull... and they make you PAY for it several times over.<br /><br />I think there should be a requirement for all business licenses that the company must prove they're not ***** morons before doing business.
