We have a ‘young lady’, living here at the Desert Sands
Golf Course on a FIXED income, that has a very impressive TV setup.
She loves to watch ‘Wheel of Fortune’ and other game shows like, ‘Jeopardy’. It is the Movies that really will open alot of eyes at her home. Imagine what 12 months of Home Box Office or the Turner Movie Channel would do for her ‘life style change’?
Alas, she has no channels other than the the so called local channels delivered digitally by our beloved FCC. I have urged her to pursue a DirecTV solution, but her answer has always been,
“John, I have NO money for that!”

Well here is the beginning of our NEW project for THIS (http://dctlan.com) website.
(Those of you familiar with the United States JayCee’s Planning Guides may reconize this; “Planning Guide” as it unfolds;
PRIMARY PURPOSE
- To deliver DirecTV to a neighbor at an essentially very low or FREE cost.
- To promote the health and welfare of our LOCAL community (Desert Sands Golf Course at Sossaman & Baseline in Mesa, AZ) and to live comfortably among amiable neighbors, eating warm food, sleeping indoors and making NEW friends every day.
SPECIFIC STEPS of This Plan
- As I see it, we are to acquire as many DirecTV account numbers as possible; Sign-up at this link; http://joenovell.com//maillist/?p=subscribe
- Also we need as as many coupons from the DirecTV Billing envelope, the kind that look like an over-sized 100 dollar bill. NOTE: Each DirectTV bill has two coupons!
- We (here at dctlan.com) will verify that each donation has filled in an actual DirecTV user’s account number on each of these coupons.
- As soon as our numbers indicate we can, we will install DirecTV at our ‘young lady’s house.
- Any remainder in DirecTV coupons will be set aside for another candidate ‘young lady’ or young man candidate.
