I have determined that I just can't sit down and post anything very often. Although I sit here at my trailer doing nothing most evenings...I still can't bring myself to type out anything interesting on here. So I apologize to those of you whom I've disappointed. However, something hilarious happened today...something worthy of posting.
So, I've been here a couple weeks already. I have a dish and receiver that I take with me when I travel like this. Never had any problems getting it set up and working. Well, I've tried 3-4 afternoons/evenings to get it pointed and set up....haven't had any luck so far. So I finally decided to call up the place here in town that does Dish Network stuff, and got a professional to come help me out.
Romack calls after the guy has been here a little while, and we proceed to talk the entire time the guy is working on my dish. Ended up that my dish was warped a little, and he had to replace the actual dish part. So the guy finishes up everything, we're sitting inside the trailer, he's writing up the ticket and I'm paying him. Romack says to me on the phone, "Ask him if he can hook you up with all the nudie channels." The guy said something, then I said to him, "My friend here on the phone wants to know if you can hook him up with all the nudie channels." We all laugh for a minute, and the guy goes on to explain that you could do that back in the day but really can't do it anymore with the new receivers and the cards that they have in them. So, we were absorbing all that when he goes on to say, "If you buy the Latino Package, it comes with Playboy." Romack and I are obviously confused and wondering why only the Latino Package automatically comes with Playboy. Romack tells me to ask if it's in English. I ask, and the guys says these Playboy channels are in Spanish. He is now walking out the door, getting in the truck and ready to leave. As he's walking out, he says, "Not that it really matters if it's in Spanish, it doesn't really matter what they're saying." We're all still busting out laughing at this point. He's opening his door and getting in the truck, and he says, "Yeah, I really don't care what she has to say."
Hopefully this was as funny to everyone else as it was to Romack and I. Asking if he could hack the receiver to get nudie channels turned into a much more interesting/funny conversation that it should have been.
How wise of that dish repairman.
I also think it's funny that you've labeled this "playboy."
As if we're all going to be searching for THAT on your blog.
