When we switched from Dish Network to AT&T U-Verse for our television needs, we had some pretty high hopes. I had expected the U-Verse to behave at least as well as the service we got from the Dish Network. Maybe possibly be better, since we never had on-demand shows before. Boy, was I disappointed.

Today is my birthday and everyone on Facebook knows it. Chrissy and I joined Facebook last year, and it sends a birthday notice to everyone that you’re friends with on the site.
