Don't blame Charter

Why is it that Charter Cable cannot deliver a Super Bowl game without a dozen outages, the longest of which has been a good 20 minutes during the biggest game of the year.

The outage was from Channel 6, WPSD in Paducah due to a house fire in Ballard County that was near one of their substations. The fire may have had an impact on the substation, which caused a spike or a dip and caused the transmitter to go into -- for lack of a better word -- a safe mode, to protect from surges. The station was able to restart the transmitter from a smart phone app, but it takes between 10 and 12 minutes to recycle itself.

Roach burger

I would like to know why a restaurant hires these women that bring roaches in from their home. I was there tonight and got me a burger and had a live roach on it.

I think it needs to be told to the health inspector. Please call them with the name of the establishment.
