j_cheneyOK, the fencing guys are supposed to return today to tear down the fence.
Last night we (![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
displacedtexan and I, not the royal 'we') re-scanned for new TV channels and, on a lark, decided to keep Telemundo in order to practice our flagging Spanish. Big mistake. Later, when we channelsurfed past TM, the tv someohw got hung up there....and took several tries to get it to change. Then it got stuck there! The remote wouldn't work, the buttons on the body of the TV wouldn't work....and the TV shut itself off. Only to turn back on, still stuck on Telemundo. After several minutes of wrangling with the thing, we shut down the power strip and left it over night.
This morning, it was still stuck, butdisplacedtexan finally managed to get it off Telemundo, and then deleted the channel.
We don't know why it was that particular channel. Virus?
So much for practicing the Spanish.
And why is Brian Williams on Today this morning? Could they not find Lester Holt? (Who probably lives in an apartment in the R. center, since he's usually there all the time.) We hope Lester's all right. He's my favorite there (although I also like Ann, Al, and David).
