Are You Ready For The Switch To Digital TV?

If you don't know it by now we all have to make the switch to digital tv by February 2009!

That means that if the television set(s) that you have are not digital-tv-ready then you will either have to get a converter for your tv or buy a new tv that is digital ready.

If you already have a satalite dish, a dish network subscription or you have cable then this does not apply to you.

The government is providing coupons for those that want to by a converter box to make their tv's digital-ready. You can request one coupon now, and one later, but no more than two per household. They expire 90 days after they are mailed.

Here is the information that you need to know in order to get your coupon(s) for the tv converter:

Order coupons on line at www.DTV2009.gov

Order by phone at 1-888-DTV-2009

Order by mail at PO Box 2000, Portland, OR 97208

Or order by fax at 1-877-DTV-4ME2

Air Conditioner On!

Today is the first day this year that I have turned on the air conditioner. At 1 o'clock in the afternoon it was already 88 degrees in Philadelphia and the heat index made it feel like 100 degrees! That is HOT!

So as much as I want to be able to conserve energy - my energy bill be damned! I am going to be comfortable!

On the bright side at least this gives me more incentive to earn more money so that I will be able to pay my electric bill!

I do have to thank The Adsense Consultant for helping me with my adsense! The adsense payments won't be issue for at least 2 weeks but at least I know that I will be getting a payment this month!
