NBC has promised thousands of hours of Olympic coverage on 6+ networks. But not so in Lawton. First of all, two of the networks, Oxygen (a women's entertainment channel) and MSNBC are not available at all on Fidelity Cable (formerly Lawton Cablevision). Keep in mind, this is the only town I've ever seen that didn't have MSNBC. But alas, even the coverage on CNBC is shockingly unavailable in Lawton. It seems that CNBC is playing normal financial shows on a feed for cable companies who don't play ball, in other words, cable companies who don't also carry MSNBC and pay a premium for Olympic coverage. So now we're down three cable networks (not to mention Universal HD). We get regular NBC coverage on KFDX, USA network and the Espanol on Telemundo. Also, NBC offers multiple live streams online. But when I entered Lawton's zip code, the computer said I couldn't watch because Lawton Cable hadn't signed on. But a little subterfuge (telling the computer I was a Charter Cable subscriber at another zip code) seemed to work. That's a lot of effort to watch rowing and archery at 1 in the morning.

Re: Lawton Olympic junkies face roadblocks

Add in one more element here: Those of us who do not subscribe to Fidelity Cable and do have DirecTV satellite systems have been knocked down one more level. I cannot access any of the NBC channels on satellite because we supposedly have NBC provided through Channel 3 in Wichita Falls. Channel 3 will not authorize me or release me in order to get NBC on satellite. So, this leaves me with CNBC and MSNBC only. No big deal as I have not been watching any of the Olympic coverage anywhere. Hey, are you guys going to get something going this week? Dirt relays, hole burrowing, chirping contests, the Fastest Across Cache Rd and Back Without Getting Run Over contests, or any other gopher-like athletic agility games? Please?

Re: Lawton Olympic junkies face roadblocks

I admire your impressive effort to be connected with the rest of the world. I've never imagined anybody would need such effort to watch Olympics. - a neighbor from a far away town, Korea.
p.s.- BTW, Phelps is doing awsome. Koreans call him 'Phelfish' now..

I am used to writing articles for the journals which might be found at www.pdfqueen.com the pdf search engine on periodical and ebooks. Now I'd like to write for blogs, how can I do that?

Hello, out there!  I'm Bonnie Barker.  You are all probably acquainted with my nephew, Sheridan, otherwise known as the "smartest prairie dog in town".  

Being somewhat envious of Sheridan's success, I decided that I should host a blog of my own.  I am interested in all the news that's fit to print and some that isn't. If you don't have anything nice to say, please come down to the prairie dog mounds and let's dish!
