Addiction


We stumbled upon a little show called Homeland a few weeks ago. You might have heard of it. We are hooked, and in order to maintain our nightly fix, Dave went ahead and ordered Showtime for us. Actually, he didn't order Showtime. He called up our cable company to downsize our current package and got so annoyed by the process and the fella he was dealing with that some manager person compensated his frustration with Showtime. Here's the thing. This happens to Dave all the time. It's a super power. He knows just the right amount of anger or disinterest to leverage in order to get free stuff. You should see it in action. It's quite amazing and graceful. You should also see Homeland in action, which is where I was going with this post in the first place.

I have stayed away from that show for particularly this reason. I've heard it is great. It will have to wait until July!
