If it wasn't for DVDTalk, I'd be DEAD
Ok, not that extreme, but very close.
Last night, I was hoping to sit back and watch <b>DVDTalk's</b> highly recommended <b>Citizen Kane</b>. It's a bit cold in Chicago, so I went over to my heater and turned it up a bit. Nothing happened. Since I know zero about HVAC, I decided it isn't in my best interest to find my pilot. My landlord is out of town for a few days, so I was basically on my own.
I called up fellow Chicagoan <b>jpalm</b> (albeit a Packers fan, but hey, we all have our flaws ) and asked to stay at his place. He ended up going to a party, but I had my own when his Victoria Secret neighbor showed up ... (OK, <b>moving to the Shaggy Forum</b>)
Anyway, thanks Geoff!

Well, most of that is true. I highly doubt the "Evil Victoria Secret's Working Neighbor Girl" showed up, b/c Abs wouldn't have been able to shut up about it if she did.
Then the next morning I even fixed his furnace for him. What a nice guy I am. I can't decide if I should charge his landlord (who did nothing to help him out) for my services. What is a fair rate on a holiday?
