You can get TWC in Canada? That's odd.

Several things: first, good lcuk on that Kyle. Your gonna need it!  :lol:
I've been at it for a few hours now.. moving everything, its all muddy as well so its alot of messy work! :P

Second, I thought it was illegal to cut down tree's as you please, unless you own it (applies only to us Americans, not to Kyle).  :unsure:
Think I care? :P *As I walk towards neighbours tree with chain saw* "Gotta get TWC, Gotta get TWC, Gotta get TWC" :P

LOL!  :lol:

I must remind you about what I put in parentheses though. What I said was directed at my American coutnerparts. I couldn't begin to talk in regards to you, because I don't know the first thing about Canadian law!  :fear:

Vic, he has satellite, Aren't you paying any attention?  :footinmouth:

No Vic. You get channels from the satellite floating out in space. its indiscriminate of where you live or what job you have.

Now I see, he has his own satellite. Not a satellite from Dish or DirecTV

I used to have a DirectTV and Dish Network subscription while I was in Atlanta, I brought my receivers up to Canada and let the subscription run out... I am now with a Canadian cable company, however to get TWC I have to ither re-activate my DirecTV / Dish Network subscrption, or get it the way I am now, which is directly off of AMC 14, the same satellite that the STARs pull the signal from.
