No problems on STAR #23550. 
I assume the issue has been fixed?

TWC Fan Art / Re: TWCJim's Artwork
« on: September 05, 2014, 06:52:11 PM »
This took me about 90 minutes to make:
It's basically a flat screen TV tuned to a channel, which, in this case, is The Weather Channel. Using Adobe Photoshop, I took a stock image from online and then cut out a square space on the TV to put images inside the hole. The images in the hole are 853px by 480px. Also, at the top-left corner of the TV screen is a re-creation of the channel info box seen on a real Samsung TV, which I happen to have at my house.
The image I used here as an example is a snapshot of the IntelliSTAR 2 Jr from Grand Coulee, WA, taken from a tuner video I recorded at my grandma's house nearly two weeks ago.
What do you guys think?

Not too long ago, I saw traffic info for the first time on my STAR, which was for a closure on the Astoria-Megler Bridge due to a car accident.

60º Mostly Cloudy
I sure can't wait for the brief return of summer-like weather here on the coast tomorrow and Saturday.

I have to agree with Eric, that comment on liberalism was indeed offensive.

Wow Sam! I wish I could go on a tour of TWC HQ someday. So did you get a tour of the whole building, or just the studio?

« on: August 26, 2014, 08:19:40 PM »Every.Simpsons.Ever Marathon on FXX (in the middle of Season 6 currently)
I would imagine the world record for longest TV marathon has already been obliterated and they still have 9 days, 19 seasons + the movie to go.
I'm watching that right now.
It's the middle of Season 12 at the moment.

iFiber Communications, Grant County, WA (my parents' ISP)
I say, this is much better compared to my ISP (Charter) back home.

When I was looking at the IS2 Jr in Grand Coulee, WA earlier this afternoon, I noticed on the LDL that none of the cities are local. For example, one city, Yakima, is nowhere near Grand Coulee, but rather about 150 miles away. The closest city on the LDL is Moses Lake, which is only about 75 miles away from Grand Coulee. I guess the local Charter headend didn't realize that there are a few towns much closer to the area than the aforementioned towns plus Ellensburg (about 120 miles away) that they could have used on the LDL instead.

If this show is categorized as Sports, then why the heck is it on The Weather Channel?

*BUMP*
Recently I saw a TV ad and it looks like there's going to be a third season of Prospectors airing later this year. I thought TWC cancelled that show.
