iTunes Movie Rentals! Check it out. I rented Reservoir Dogs for $0.99 the other night. Love those $0.99 specials. I feel one step closer to going totally digital with movies… (this is another QuickPress)

This post is just a test of the Wordpress “QuickPress” feature in the latest version. (I just upgraded this blog to the latest Wordpress.) This feature looks pretty cool and seems useful for quick little posts like this one…below a screen-shot of this feature in case you were wondering what I’m talking ’bout…

After realizing I’ve been a little negative with some recent posts about certain cable companies and even oatmeal on this little blog of mine…I thought I’d give a well deserved thank you to FedEx customer service. I’ve called their generic customer service line a couple of times this week and managed to get a real live human on the phone within a few minutes without any hold time. Not only that, both times I called they were able to answer my questions or solve my problem. Pretty amazing considering this week is the busiest week of the entire year for FedEx. Bravo, FedEx.

How good is Time Warner customer service you ask? Not very good. I need a replacement remote for my Time Warner cable box because my dog chewed my remote! (serious) I already learned that Time Warner does not even answer their phone if you need help, so I had no plans of calling them. So today I drove to their in-person customer support location. After waiting a good while and witnessing the sole customer service person argue with a customer for the entire time…I decided I did not want to waste any more of my life in the hellish Time Warner office or potentially get into a fight with the lady at the desk over my remote. So now I’ve got a chewed up Time Warner remote and no real way of operating my cable box. I’m considering buying a remote on eBay or something and sending the bill to Time Warner. Think they will pay the bill? Lets find out…

You would think that the folks over at Time Warner would appreciate the fact that I pay roughly $55 per month for their top-tier cable Internet service. I believe they call it “Road Runner Extreme” or some similar nonsense. So last night I got home from a dinner and my Internet was out. No biggie, I understand, these things can happen I thought. I went to sleep and figured it would surely be fired up in the morning. I woke up early and had some important work to get done. [Read more →]

I was in Starbucks today and noticed they were now selling now fancy new oatmeal called “perfect oatmeal”…I think it was priced about $2.40 plus a little extra for a topping. I ordered the oatmeal with brown sugar along with a drip coffee. I watched him make the oatmeal because I was curious was made this oatmeal “perfect”. Starbucks has been in trouble lately and is hyping these healthy breakfast options as one way to bounce back. Anyway, I watched the guy at Starbucks grab a packet of what looked like generic oatmeal you can buy for about $0.20 a packet at the grocery store. Then he added some hot water and threw my little bag of brown sugar topping and plastic spoon in a paper bag. This is not exactly my idea of a “perfect oatmeal” experience. My order total was close to 5 bucks for an oatmeal and a drip coffee. A little too much money don’t ya think? Next time I want a packet of very average generic oatmeal I will do what I usually do: pull it out of my cupboard in my kitchen. I suggest you do the same.

I’m in the habit of checking to see what the latest free weekly song download is at iTunes. This week they are offering a single that actually does not suck! Here’s the link to download it. Usually they offer some ridiculous teen pop or American Idol garbage, but this time it is nice: a little Tony Bennett to start getting you in the Holiday and Christmas mood. Thanks, iTunes.
