Hi there, I live in Southern Florida. And for any of you who have ever lived down here, this part of the year is more or less monsoon season. Thunderstorms and very heavy rain every day from 3pm to anytime past midnight. We get rain every day, sometimes a 20 minute downpour. Sometimes like today, a 6 hour off and on downpour. Welp, I have DirectTV and when it rains, I lose all TV. Needless to say it's raining. And the new episode of Lost starts in a half hour. So I'm more or less hosed since local TV reception is so horrid here. Thank God my parents live about 40 minutes away and have Cable. This is strike 1 against DirectTV. I MUST have my Lost fix.

I almost missed the entire episode last Season where Boone dies because the stupid weatherman had to inturrupt every 15 minutes to tell me it was raining! Like I can't look outside the window and see that?!?
I sent them a nasty email. Won't improve things the next time it happens but it made me FEEL better!! :biggrin:
