DID YOU GO TO THE (NBC-TV SHOW) OFFICE YESTERDAY? "No, I went to see my buddy, Muscles, and where he works at DirecTV. And man, I had a meeting with him about where the numbers are on the remote (control unit). I think they should change it (laughter). Do ya'll have DirecTV? You know where the numbers are at the bottom of the remote, and you have to hold it kind of funny and it's very uncomfortable and awkward. And when you hold a normal remote, you want the numbers up in the middle. Ya'll got to help me man. Muscles is not hearing me. He thinks I'm joking, but I'm serious. I feel like he needs to offer a remote for those people like me who want the numbers up in the middle. Maybe if you guys (the media) write about it, they'll hear. It's a travesty. It is. You change the channel by the numbers and everybody goes to the numbers. They put them down at the bottom and my thumb can't get down there and I drop the remote a lot. It's terrible."
