I am sure this will get swatted but I need a place to vent. I have been in EL Paso less than a week but I can't stand the Mountain Time zone. It is the red headed step child of TV programming. Networks do nothing to accomadate the MT television watchers. I mean at least in the Central time zone primetime stuff starts at a reasonable time 7pm, but in the mountain time zone it starts at 6pm.

The pacfic time zone start times would be better. It is just unreal by the time we have gotten done with running around for the day, eat dinner and get settled half of the prime time programming is over.

Then after the news is over at 10pm, you have only until 1am to watch most stations because the infomercials start up because in the EAST it is 3am.

Now this wouldn't be bad if there was something outside on the town to do but on base, and just outside of Fort Bliss everything closes at 9 or 10 because they go off EST schedules.

Last night my brother and I went to get dinner, all the close by fast food places were closed at 9:00 pm, so we had to drive 29 minutes to find a KFC, which was out of everything.

On a postive note, the chicks around here per capita >>>>>>>>>those in Metro Detroit.

Side note after watching the 1:30pm Pistons game and wanting to throw the TV, we drove to the border and watched people try to get close to the electric fence it was rather funny. BTW the Rio Grande is a joke, I have seen more water in urinals.

This should be our first blog.

He's also been successful in dodging swattings.

Speaking of KFC:



Pakistan cartoon protesters riot, burn KFC

LAHORE, Pakistan - Thousands of protesters rampaged through two cities Tuesday, storming into a diplomatic district and torching Western businesses and a provincial assembly in Pakistan's worst violence against the Prophet Muhammad drawings, officials said. At least two people were killed and 11 injured.

Security forces fired into the air as they struggled to contain the unrest in the eastern city of Lahore, where protesters burned down four buildings housing a hotel, two banks, a KFC restaurant and the office of a Norwegian cell phone company, Telenor.

U.S. and British embassy staffers were confined to their compounds until police dispersed the protesters, some of whom chanted, "Death to America!"

Witnesses said rioters also damaged more than 200 cars, dozens of shops and a large portrait of President Gen. Pervez Musharraf. Vandals broke the windows of a Holiday Inn, Pizza Hut and McDonald's.

Two movie theaters were torched, and clouds of tear gas and black smoke from burning vehicles outside Citibank and Metropolitan Bank branches drifted through streets in the city center.
