you'd have to move to Montana for that. today i battled a snowstorm, hail, and rain all while brazing a gate in a half hour's time.
I battled through an overcast day all while building a log cabin with Lincoln Logs. Top that


i watched an antelope give birth the other day. two days ago i was drinking my coffee and saw the same animal with twin fawns.

Blow out your candle and go to bed. Did you tell the rooster what time you need to be up in the morning?

Im a bit late, but heres my .02 worth. Assa did you try unplugging it for a minute or two then plug it back in? Seems way to easy but its worked way to many times for me. Our colors started acting up, unplugged it, went and did something for a while, came back and plugged it in, hasnt failed yet.

Rebelp must work for the cable company....I think he figured it out.
AT...trying switching TVs to different rooms. If the problem follows the TV...it is a bad set.
Remotes are universal...somebody could be fucking with you.
A garage door opener could do it.
Dont forget...it could be aliems. :lol:
They like the history channel.

Clean the fuse bulbs and look for any damaged cables the cat might have gnawed at.

Take another TV in there and see if it does the same thing if it doesn't then you know the digital tuner in the TV is going bad. If it does then you know the coax to the TV is screwed up somehow I'd bet if it's the coax the core is grounded out to the sheath.
“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom, go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that ye were our countrymen.” ― Samuel Adams

We have two cable boxes. Identical remotes.
I take the bedroom one. Change channels on the wifes TV and watch her struggle to figure it out.
Fun FUN!

fridge, for half a week. the rest of the time i use a cooler.

:?: :?: :?: Do you only get power for half a week, travel a lot or what?


both. I am currently a field tech for Montana FWP, which means that my work week is spent out in the field. sometimes i stay in the FWP bunkhouse at one location, but not all the time. if i'm there there is power and a fridge, but most other places are no cell service, internet, television or electricity.

One time my tv was silent except for a few channels and the one that had sound were in Spanish. It was really pissing me off. Then I figured out my tv was in Spanish mode and the channels with sound were the ones who had simulcast.

The obvious solution is to blow the damned thing up with a percussion grenade.
I totally would do it it was 1984 again.
