On February 17th 2009 the entire American population is being forced to switch their television to digital or loose all signal. Who in their infinite wisdom came up with this brilliant idea you ask, why our congress of course. They slate the benefits of better reception and digital quality sound not to mention being able to see every facial blemish on all the actors and actresses; Wow Paris Hilton with a pimple, and I thought she was perfect. Oh, it's more flexible and efficient technology and also frees up parts of the airwaves to provide wireless spectrum for future innovative services by entrepreneurs. Hmm! I wonder who owns those new start up companies? This means that approximately 70 million television sets risk loosing signal unless they switch. Oh but switching is easy all you have to do is any of the following:
1. Buy a DTV converter (Hmm! I wonder who owns the company that makes those)
2. Purchase an HDTV television (Oh and don't forget to buy the high quality antenna for DTV. Hmm! I wonder who owns that company)
3. By cable or satellite
Dad says speak up America and tell them to stick it up their wazoo, lets all dump our TV's into the Boston harbor.

I wonder who owns this blog? Hmmm...
Are you a communist, dad?
I am many things non conformist, environmentalist, pianist, but communist is not one of them. I spent 10 years defending my country against the scum that infest it and continue to work through CERT ( a part of homeland security) to aid our great country. Yes I am many things but communist is not one of them.
