So, the Emmy's were on last night. Yeah....It was hosted by the 5 nominees for best reality or competition reality hosts--Tom Bergeron (Dancing with the Stars), Ryan Seacreast (American Idol),Jeff Probst (Survivor), Heidi Klum (Project Runway) , and Howie Mandel (Deal or No Deal). Now, aside from Howie's time as a stand-up comediane, none of these people says more than 1 page of dialogue on each of their shows. Now, how can the winner of the best reality program for the last 7 years....as long as the catagory has existed not have a host nomination? "The Amazing Race" is the best reality show around and Phil is the best host ever. He was robbed, I tell ya!
As for the other awards? Well, I was happy the Pushing Daiseys won at least one award--for Directing, I think....Other awards were won by Mad Men (best Drama) and 30 Rock (best Comedy) and for actors from those particular series. John Adams won most of the miniseries awards. If you want a full list of winners, you can find it just about anywhere...I'm just here to comment...
I thought one of the best awards was a belated Emmy to Tommy Smothers for his writing on The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour back from 1968! Wow....
It was also great to see Don (How *old* is that guy, anyway) Rickles up on stage although I don't think he paid much attention to the teleprompter! Heck, I don't think anyone did since all I was hearing was that everyone was running behind and everyone's skits were being removed for time....
So...you thoughts?
Oh...and my thoughts, prayers and wishes for a speedy recovery to Travis Barker and DJ AM...

Rules of calling Customer Service!
- 1. Before you call any 800 number--Please put your children, animals & significant others in a closet and lock the door til you're done. We really don't appreciate hearing your children screaming in our ears. We don't, in any way, find their antics nearly as priceless as you do.
- 2. Read your bill before you start bitching and whining about it. Read the front and back of all pages. Read it every single month. No company ever just puts charges on your bill just for thrills or to see how long it will take you to notice. All price increases need to be okayed by the FCC or PUC before they take effect and you are given at least 30 days notice.
- 3. It doesn't matter how long you've gone to school or whether you are a doctor,lawyer or Indian chief, I still know more about your service than you do. I know more about the technology than you do and I've got all day to listen to you as you lose your braincells. (And just so you know, whenver it gets very quiet, you are on mute as we *laaaaauuugghh*, tell our neighbors how stupid you are and wait for you to just....shut up)
- 4. Just about anything a "supervisor" can do, we can do...we just don't want to give it to you. Why should we? Sometimes it just feels better to piss you off.
- 5. Anyone over 60 must take a test before they are allowed to get any sort of electronics. If you can't operate it, you can't have it.
- 6. Please stop asking us how we are ..we really don't care how you are and you make us politely ask you after you ask us. Just start talking and whining about the problem so that we don't have to "mute" you (see previous posts about what happens when you are muted)
- 7. Do *not* eat or chew gum while talking to us. I can understand if you were catching up on lunch while on hold and I'm willing to give a little leeway but you better apologize for it and stop. Do you know how many times I've wanted to tell people that I can't understand them with their mouth full? And to ask them if their mother ever told them that it was just plain rude! I don't chew gum while I'm talking to you...do you consider yourself better than me? You think you are better than *me*?
