Would this song be "Rhumba for my Lady" by Richard Smith? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6jQXgMfgxSQ&feature=channel_page

Certainly sounds like Richard Smith after hearing the guitar and piano. Richard Smith the only other artist I can think of who has the jazz guitar style and piano in the background in the music.

Nope, that's not Richard Smith. That guitarist has a very unique style that is unlike that of Richard Smith.

Wow, thanks! I figured it was just custom-made production music.

I figured that same thing too, until I heard it play on dozens of commercials and channels here, and even on my Jeff Dunham DVD. I then decided to do a bit of searching and sure enough, I came up with the song.

That's crazy that you know that!
Awesome! Thanks!

No problem!  I actually discovered the name awhile back, but forgot to post it for y'all to see.

Came across this video... most of it is the theme used on EE's promos last summer, but a different cut.

I would have had a good New Years Eve but my Computer got infected with Trojan.Virtumonde.  I was able to get rid of it so I'm Happy

What a coincidence! I was battling that same virus the other night! It really was a bitch to get rid of..

Wow, mine didn't last that long. It lasted only 1 LF. I wonder if anyone here has been lucky enough to be switched to a neighboring XL, 4000, or jr while their intellistar was repaired.

I noticed the strangest thing today. I was watching my intellistar this morning, and the radar was shifted a little more to the southwest with some different cities, and the cities on the 8-city observation list were also different. But then during the next LF, it reverted back to the normal configuration. I wonder what happened...

Your cable company might've switched to a back-up IntelliStar until your normal one is fixed. Did you get the Local WX ID's?

It was really early in the morning, and I don't really pay attention to the IDs. But IIRC, the CC city was the same (Santa Cruz), just the 8 city list and the radar were different. But I do recall seeing a slightly different intellistar similar to this one while at a nearby hotel less than a mile away, so maybe you're right. This is the first time I've ever seen this happen.

I've stayed at a couple hotels with absolutely NO STAR. No satellite LDL, no ID # or cable provider, no local information inserts, just the satellite feed.

I need to lose weight. I don;t know how I'm gaining weight if I'm barely eating. And I take a walk every morning.

That's probably your problem right there. Strangely enough, I've heard that when you DON'T eat, you can actually end up gaining weight.

Why is EVERYONE ignoring/blocking me? It's happening in AIM (which i mainly use to chat with my school friends) , google talk, here, and even Youtube. wtf did i do.

Jeez, Vic. Did it ever occur to you that maybe we have lives outside the computer?? I'm sorry, but I really don't want to sit around 24/7 giving info on unavailable songs to the countless folks who bug me everyday. Plus, my email has been buggy lately, which has prevented me from communicating with people.

I agree with Vic. Derek, you don't need to gain weight. Don't take this the wrong way, but when you posted your picture awhile back, I was stunned at how great you looked. I couldn't believe how much weight you shed. Your not too thin. And why take a chance on putting on TOO MUCH weight. Once you start putting pounds back on, you'll end up back where you were before you know it.

Actually, it's not my choice anymore. My parents, my doctor, and nearly everyone I know says that I have to gain weight. Apparently, now I'm actually underweight (I honestly cannot believe it). I look a heck of a lot different now compared to how I looked in that picture. And believe me, I'm not thrilled about doing this at all.

Well...if the doctor says your underweight you better listen I suppose. You just have to be careful-if your prone to weight gain, you could end up gaining too much.

Oh believe me, I'm going to be really careful....
