Uhhhh....DTV isn't putting any extra commercials in that the cable companies
don't have access to.  They all get the same feed.  Depending on the
channel, they get 2 to 4 insert breaks per hour. (20 after and 50 after the
hour are the standards)

I've never seen an entertaining cable channel (premium channels aside) that
didn't have commercials

I think about 3 times a day again depending on the channel involved.  No,
I'm not joking.

Yet you still have your cable according to the above statement.  Seems odd
to keep paying for something that you don't give a damn aboot.  Do you keep
changing the oil on your car when the engine blows too?

Hence being called the HISTORY CHANNEL you dolt.  Do you also complain about
the outcomes of games on ESPN Classic cause the are always the same?

Forensic Pathology is quite interesting to many people, just cause you don't
like it doesn't mean others don't.

So the guy forgot the "H" in Sr's name.  (H.W. is too wordy anyway) Damn you

Feel free to pull the plug on your cable and PLEASE pull the plug on your
internet connection before we all ban together and do it for you.
