Comcast keeps loosing sound!

I have Comcast service.

They suck.

One issue I have is that my basic cable box keeps loosing sound.  I had to replace it multiple times before I figured out the problem.

Apparently the box will switch to Spanish Language.  Why it does this, I don't know.  So what happens is that some channels will be normal, but others will have no sound what so ever.

I've yet to find a channel that will actually speak in Spanish as of yet.

So, this is very annoying.  In order to change the language you have to hit the Xfinity button on the remote and go through the menu there.

Feeling blue.

Sad day.  Dissapointed in life.  Dissapointed in myself.  Can't seem to get my feet underneath of me in order to get my head straight.  There are days like this every so often.  Things will get better.

That's all for now.

Thoughts on Raconteur Report's Adult Supervision & the Media Plan

This is an interesting post.

Raconteur Report: Adult Supervision & the Media Plan

Whenever I teach, I try to stress that perception is reality.  How you perceive yourself is one thing, how others perceive you is another.  And when one is managing an event that is viewed by others, we must put our best professional foot forward.  (The short of it is watch your language and maintain clear verbal commands, while there is more to it I shall not go into it here.)

While a portion of this was directed at the idiocy that was the Oregon occupation, this essay would have been helpful with a lot of the other protests in the past few years such as the Occupy Wall Street groups.

I've noted that different media entities take up for certain...  Protesters?  Activists?  Heck, different alphabet medias will each term the groups different ways depending on how they intend to portray them.  I remember in college that I was taught that the media could not influence a person's decision making.  But they can, due to the fact that they can filter what information is presented thus the viewers are not making fully informed decisions.

Don't Give Up - AMV



Per: wolven outcast



 "No matter the wall, no matter the darkness we all try to thrive. Sometimes the burdern is greater than we think we can handle, no matter how hard we strive. We all want to be special if only for a little while, to see the the light at its brightest. but the darkness consumes our every thought, leaving us not even in the slightest. I know, perhaps better it is that i hope there is someone for me. Lonely hearts sometimes find their way, far off the bitter coast into the sea. Love the song and the words, even if for now i cannot feel their warmth. Rest now its time to sleep, before the reaver's sythe i keep."

I was just futzing on YouTube and found this.  Kind of interesting.  So I'm posting this here and I'm going to have to look into them some more when I have more free time.

Cluster of Daddy Longlegs (Harvestmen) - Ajijic, Mexico

I have always had an affinity for Daddy Longlegs, even before I was in Boy Scouts.  I've never seen this behavior before.  I think it's pretty neat, even though everyone else would get squigged out.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Happy Thanksgiving ya'll.

Due to my job, I don't always get to celebrate Thanksgiving with my family.  I hope everyone out there gets to spend time with someone that they love, or at least someone that they appreciate.

Since I get to work, I'll have to settle for a phone call from my family later this evening.  But it will work out.

Anime I've gotten around to watching so far.

I'm rather excited that they are now producing a second season of Seraph of the End.  I was going through my Hulu watchlist and saw that there was a new episode last night!  Normally I drop a series from my Hulu watchlist once I've seen it, but I kept that one in hoping that I'd catch extra episodes.

I'm really hoping that they make a second season of Saekano: How to Raise a Boring Girlfriend.  It was a nice series without too much fan service.  I didn't care too much abou the story line for Michiru.  But I felt it portrayed high school relationships a bit more realistically, part no interest and part no clue.  (Well, that was most of my experience anyways.)

Pretty much I'm only watching stuff on Hulu.  I was watching Daredevil on Netflix but it's been difficult for me to fit in an hour long series due to my life being busy.  Heck, I've had to take two days to watch some 30 minute series.

What all am I watching right now?  I'm glad that The Awesomes is back for a third season.  Not anime but it's a great series for those of us that grew up with Marvel and DC.  Aoharu X Machinegun is actually a neat series, but my mind keeps wanting to relate it to paintball.  Seiyu's Life is not grabbing me, but I love that I'm learning about Japanese Voice Actors.  I think I just finished Overlord.  Interesting concept about a person who gets stuck in a video game, but rather than the hero trying to get out of the game he is just trying to explore it.  Ranpo Kitan: Game of Laplace is very interesting and it kept my attention but I'm almost at the end and it seems to be loosing it's story telling.  I think I have one more episode to go to finish the series.

I've got a lot of other anime in my que, but I haven't gotten around to watching it as of yet.  We'll see.
