You know, Time Warner Cable is still the devil, but they have added some more HD channels for our viewing pleasure. So much so, they have to move some previously assigned channels to make way for the new ones.

These are the ones that showed up only 2 days ago:

Biography, Cartoon Network, Disney XD, Turner Classic Movies (yes!), Fox Business News, Style, Headline News, E! and Hallmark.

OK, how many of those will I actually watch? I can't say.

Then in a few weeks, we allegedly get even more.

The Weather Channel, WE, TV One (I thought they could barely broadcast in standard def), Planet Green, IFC ("Henry: Portrait of a Serial Killer", here we come), Fuse, NHL Network, Tennis Channel and CBS College Sports.

Of course, still no NFL Network. They still hate each other.

Big ups to The Happy Dog. Eric Williams, the owner of Momocho, took over and it looks like his changes might actually work. Amazing what a coat of paint will do for a public restroom and new tables and chairs, including hightops, and booths are also a nice addition. Yes, the menu has been pared down to hot dogs, tater tots and fries. But the dogs! Pretty big and grilled, with about 50 toppings. You order like you're ordering sushi, checking off fresh items you want on a sheet of paper. Very nice!

How to clean like McGyver. Ah, baking soda will help with just about anything.

Charges for the Balloon Boy Family are coming. Best joke, so far: "I wasted money buying 40 yards of foil to be the Balloon Boy for Halloween, when all I needed was a cardboard box." We should all be singing this song today:

"Balloon Man" by Robyn Hitchock



AMC's Fearfest starts later this week.

We all have our favorite TV series. Which ones are in danger of getting cancelled?

Randy Lerner's Other Team had a huge win today. Aston Villa moves up the table.

While the Browns are sure to be crushed by Pittsburgh tomorrow.
