    Sadly, It Won't Happen

    There is no way the cable companies will allow this. How do I know? I am currently an HBO subscriber and a Roku owner. I am also a Comcast subscriber. Comcast will NOT allow HBO to allow me to access my PAID for HBOGO account on my Roku. No rhyme, no reason - just no GO!

    If they will not allow a paying subscriber of their system access a feature I am paying for on a specific device because they don't like it, what makes anyone think that they (big cable) are going to allow HBO to give access to a "cord cutter".

    Well, they did try to pay the birds, but it seems they flew the coup!

  • On the post: TSA Agents Continue To Lie And Say You Can't Photograph Or Videotape Checkpoints

    BWI is my home airport that I fly out of regularly. Shortly after 9/11, the airport had no photography signs at the checkpoints that stated the ban was enforced by COMAR 11 03.01.09 B (2). A while back, there was a discussion on flyertalk about the signs and how, thru an airport directive (BWI-300.3), the signs were being enforced under Maryland law, as a violation of said directive.

    Last week, I noticed all the signs were covered up and another discussion on flyertalk confirmed that the airport is not enforcing the ban and the directive is no longer listed on the MAA's BWI Directive PASSUR list .

    I guess nobody bothered to inform the TSA personnel.

    Me? I'm just a die hard Bird's fan. Whether it's the O's or the Ravens. Although I wish I was an announcer, they have better seats then I do.

    A January game at Camden Yards? There's no baseball in January. Did you mean a January game at the Raven's M&T Bank Stadium?
