The Times they are a changin' Some observations today getting oil changed

 I always go to the dealer we got our vehicle from.

Used to, Faux snooze was the channel on the provided TV in the "lounge" The three computers provided would never go to DU but went to conservative sites.
 

TODAY however,

The TV was on Headline news. Not much better but better. AFter watching it for a little while, the service man came to tell me we had a nail in our back tire, but since we bought the tires there as well, they would fix it for free.
 
Visited the computer and first place I tried to go was DU and it came up. I cruised around for a while and read the latest news then tried to go to some conservative sites and got a blocking message saying the "rules of the network" prohibitted those particular sites.
 

Quite a difference!!!

Just Pam bragging she can afford to go to the dealer to get her oil changed instead of Jiffy Lube or some such . . . or horrors, doing it herself (or husband).  :whatever:

Pffffttt.  small parsnips.  My neighbor constantly had Faux Nus on his Tee Vee & it bugged the shit out of me. I know it was Faux because I could hear it when I pressed my ear to his window.  Well, I called the Sheriff & complained about my First Amendment rights.  The next evening when he got home from work and turned on the Tee Vee, the Sheriff jumped out of the bushes and clubbed him sensless. Thank Ghia for ABM and the First Amendment.

Auto dealerships do not block websites based on political ideology.  This is just the stupidest thing she's come up with yet.

To me, it shows how stupid she is to go to the dealer for that.

I see Operation Car Lot is going as planned.  Eventually, we'll switch the channel to PMSNBC and the moonbat will bring all of her moonbat friends along.  When she's not looking, we'll remove the prop cars, trap them inside and turn it into a reeducation camp! :yahoo:

I think some places with public computers use some sort of filtering software to block sites that may not be family oriented.  DU should should have remained on that block list since there is more profanity there than on many porn sites. Or so I'm told.

I have to laugh because I live in VT(one of the looniest states in the country) and our local McDonalds has Fox on 24/7 and I haven;t seen a DU type hissyfit yet.  If I ever do I'll ask them what's their DU screenname?  Actually, with all respect to DU, I should say what's there DU screenname?

I was in McDonalds last week and the TV I was sitting next to had a Billy Graham sermon on.

Reminds me of something:
I saw a dude in a small foreign car and a diesel pickup dodging each other in traffic a while go. They were road raging on each other. They pulled up to a red light at an intersection but the pickup was about a car legnth ahead of the smaller car. The pickup driver revved his engine and belched a big black cloud from exhaust right into the window of the smaller car when the light turned green. Made me LMOA for the rest of my trip home.

Do auto dealerships have computers for the public to use? I doubt it, they might have free wifi, but that's it.

The Toyota dealer we bought my Sienna from does (they have about 5 of them in their very nice and spacious lounge) - and as all my oil changes are free (yeah I know, it's built into the price of the vehicle), I do go there for oil changes/tire rotations etc.

Done that a few times myself.
