Re: Tivo again ?

Hee hee:

DirecTV: "Customer service, how may I help you?"

Me: "Um, yeah, I got tired of my H20 rebooting every day, so I poured alcohol in it and set it on fire to see how long it would continue to operate. . .Anywhoo, runs about 2 minutes with 8" flames coming out the vent ports on top. It's, um, no longer functional, can I get a new one?"

DirecTV: "Looks like you're on the replacement plan, we'll send someone out tomorrow to replace the charred hulk of your H20 with a new one."

I'd love to see the look on the face of the guy who gets it at the refurb center.

I bet they'd cancel my replacement plan after that.
