    I'm camping with spotty service up a mountain trying to not have my tent blow away in what has turned from rain to snow, and this is making my damn day. Beats listening to NOAA VHF stations since I can't sleep in this shit anyway!

    I really wish my local city channel would go 24 hour news and do special event type things on .2 and put old movies or such in between.
