DirecTV Dilema

I've been in my place since December and never hooked up my DVD player.

I tried yesterday and was unsuccessful. I called Philips, the maker of the DVD player, to assist me, and they screwed everything up worse!

I also have DirecTV, and i know it's possible to link everything, but I'm simply not getting it!

DirecTV said it would cost $70 to send a technician to fix it. I really don't wanna pay for it, but I might have to.

See, the alternative is to get this nerdy guy in the building to do it, or to call a guy friend.

NO, to both.

I HATE having people in my house .... that know me I guess. Cuz I'm ok with the DirecTV guy coming....hmmmmm. Interesting.

Gonna try again today and then have my dad look at it.
