2. Let's hear it for the state of Utah!
Glenn Beck is really bizarre. And I can see him as entertaining in a sick/funny kind of way. But I cannot understand why anyone would take him seriously, he is odd, ignorant and whiny. But I guess if your target audience is odd, ignorant and whiny your advertising dollars are well spent with Glenn.

6. Just called in to Dish
to register my displeasure. Talked with the usual operator who was very pleasant and assured me my comment would be passed along. I told her I would be moving my service if they do not stop within a month or two. I actually have an offer through my local phone company for the same programing with some perks and discounts.

7. Make sure Dish doesnt stick you with a $500 break contract fee
Or something like that. They can be real assholes.
