Have, you rescaned for channels. Maybe reorient your antenna(s). I think they changed channel numbers, changed towers or something when analog went away. I remember seeing something about it. Check http://www.kolotv.com/

http://www.antennaweb.org/aw/Address.aspx is another good resource.

I was underwhelmed entirely. In fact, the course is so small and tight in some places, that it really takes away from the enjoyment, their basically trying to fit thier car in places, not drive it. Pretty lame event all the way around.

They used to run normal stages in the LA hills , then just the "special" as the finale. It is not too bad for a special stage, but shouldn't be the whole thing.

Everything is getting shorter for the ADD generation. Skateboard and bike runs are down to 30 seconds, though I kind of like the "jam" format where they run as many times as they can in 15 minutes and falls or stops end their time.

We watched the BMX bikes do this in the temporary concrete park and it was by far the most entertaining part of X Games this year.

Bummer that Pastrana didn't land his dirt bike corkscrew flip thingy in Best Trick and wouldn't use his 2nd try due to blurry vision. What a pussy. I thought it was lame that the emo kid won with the same trick from last year. What a putz. He had even flaked out on practice earlier in the day.

Meh, it was all more of the same. I mean every trick was a backflip, he at least mixed it up. So what if it was the same trick, nobody else was really being innovative, except Travis and he is certifiably insane. The other guy was trying to do a double back and that had already been done too. I was rooting for Bilko tho...
