Sweet, USCHO gives out grammys? What is the plural of grammy? Grammies? Grammi? Grammys?

Oh, and I wrote more lyrics...they're edited into the original post.

Morning!

I'm having a hard time deciding if I want the plastic Samsung Galaxy SIII phone for Verizon, or if I want to risk changing carriers in January to get a different phone.

You'll probably keep cable. They'll extend or offer something else. We pretty much call and say "Our bill is too high and we don't feel like paying that anymore." They then throw a ton of crap at us and our bill goes down at the same time. Anyone paying full choke for cable is a sucker.

I found out last night, when Comcast came to install my cable, that when they signed me up they gave me a year free of HBO channels and a year free of Showtime channels. So I'm getting the preferred pack, with HD, sports package, DVR and HBO/Showtime for $60/month. It goes up to $80 after a while, but it still seems like a good deal for $80.

There is something seriously wrong with me. I have that awful "Call Me Maybe" song stuck in my head. I started changing the words for hockey..."that was hooking, so call it maybe". Then I wasted time looking up the actual lyrics so I could write alternate lyrics that fit well. This is what I have so far. I'm ashamed of it and proud of it at the same time.

I saw you step on the ice,
The pep band played 'Three blind mice'
My shouts were not very nice,
'cause you got in the way

I'd trade my soul for a goal,
Give back the score that you stole,
Your eyesight's worse than a mole,
You stupid referee

Arm raised should be holdin'
Zebra stripes are showin'
Whistle should be blowin'
Why you awful, referee?

Hey, I don't know you,
but you are crazy
'cause that was tripping,
so call it maybe?

And oh the other ref,
He's just lazy,
'cause that was tripping,
so call it maybe?

[edit...because for some reason I wrote more]

You took no time with that call,
Their player embellished that fall,
You give us nothing at all,
You’re always in the way

They deke, grind and wheel
Your calls still seem unreal,
Then Rico yells an appeal,
So the call goes his way

Arm up you are holding,
Whistle now it’s blowing,
BS call I know it,
Such a d-bag referee

I wish I didn’t know you
This game is crazy
Now, that was slashing,
So call it maybe?

Wish I didn’t know you
This game is crazy
Hey, that was slashing,
So call it maybe?

As soon as you stepped on the ice, this game got so bad,
This game got so bad, this game got so, so bad
As soon as you stepped on the ice, this game got so bad,
And you should know that, your calls are so, so bad

It’s hard to know just what you’re calling
That was hooking, so call it maybe

Hey, blind *** ref boy,
Are you ef ing crazy?
That’s a misconduct,
So call it maybe?

And for all of you with the song stuck in your head now, I apologize

Don't apologize, this is good stuff...

Good morning, Lodge.

Actually they do not have tons of choices. They have very few. Especially if you want something of good quality. They will have iPhone5, but I have no interest in that.

Really the only choices for phones at Verizion running Android would be the Razr Maxx or the Galaxy SIII. The rest are crap. Also they are still releasing phones with Android OS 2.3 on it, which is pretty much unacceptable.

I've never had a problem with them. I have the Razr Maxx and it is incredible.

They are also coming out with the new Razr Maxx HD sometime soon.

It's not about having a problem with the phone. Its about paying $200 or whatever for phones that use old technology. Android is already working on 4.2 and we are getting phones with 2.3.x on them.

I already own a phone with that OS, and its nearly as fast, so its not an upgrade.

Although some of the models do have issues (Rezound). As I said Razr is the other decent choice, though minus the plastic I think the galaxy is the better choice.

Seriously wT, we need someone to record that and edit it with footage and get it on YouTube or something. Bravo, that is excellent work. There could be different versions for each conference.
 
Re: Rep Retirement Lodge #155: Back to School

Good Morning, Lodge!

Test driving cars this morning and looking at another car this evening. Hopefully we can have everything wrapped up and a new car on Saturday.

You know what's better than a car? A motorcycle. You should get one of those.

My boss bailed on me for a meeting today. He didn't tell me about it. Great.

I shared this with the Children of Yost (Michigan student section) on Facebook. They've brought up the idea of a video. I'm not sure that I have the time to make that happen.

And it's easy enough to sub your most hated opposing coach for 'Rico' in the lyric I wrote. I used his name because I hate him, and last season we had a game where he spent 10 minutes having a fit at the ref.

My laptop is starting to show its age. Getting slower, and the display gets flickery if it's been on for a while.

I'm not a fan of Windows 8, so I'm thinking about officially finishing the glass of Kool-Aid and getting a MacBook Air.

Have you been using the beta OS? I'm not wild about the proposed design, but I've also not seen a working copy of it yet.
