"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Also, earthlink offers a AAA discount, if you're the sort of person who has AAA. It's not much, but every dollar, right?

Wait, is this real-world child support, where the money goes to buy food for the kids, or MRA fantasyland child support where the women just buy Ferraris and cocaine? -Jessica

hmmmm. Is it complex to switch? Also, I need to keep my aol name. I've had it for like, 12 years.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

You can't keep your AOL name unless you're with AOL. It's possible AOL can do some forwarding dealie, but you'll still be subject to their foibles. And their costs.

Shit's all sorts of different now.

Allyson, if you sign up for AT&T DSL online right now, they are having a $12.99/month for 12 months right now.

PR: I liked Austin's line, but that music was HORRIBLE. "The American President" meets ... something. As far as Santino is concerned, I think he did what he needed to do design-wise to be able to stay. Producers love him. He's a character, people love to hate him. They watch him for the reasons people first listened to Howard Stern - they want to see what the FUCK he designs next.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You'll have to keep paying AOL, then, but just to keep the email is like $5 a month.

Is this the everything Olympic tv schedule we were looking for?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Also, Dorothy Hamill = my favorite haircut of the 70s. Not that I had a lot to choose from.

Dorothy Hamill has one of my favorite celeb stories. She was talking to someone one day and the woman said she liked her hair, that it was "almost a Dorothy Hamill" haircut. Dorothy said it was a Dorothy Hamill haircut. The woman basically said, "No, not quite, but pretty close." (Paraphrased from 20 years back, sorry).

Andi and I are getting a 5 mbps down/ 768k up DSL deal from Qwest right now. $35/month, first 12 months, no contractual obligation to stay with them, free dsl modem for a year, no activation charges, and free installation if we needed.

It would be $30/mo if we had one of their package phone "deals"

They have a slower DSL connection at $25/$20 with package.

Prices rounded to nearest dollar.

I do not know if it's available in your area, but it's nice to know I won't pay a penalty if I decide to jump at a better deal.

Bob's learned to live with tragedy, but he knows that this tragedy is one that won't ever leave him or get better.

It's come up before--it's something that Netflix cops to in their terms of service. Annoying, but it's what he agreed to.
So annoying. Totally legit if it is in the ToS though. It's why I really should read those things more carefully. I think Blockbuster is going to hike my rates so I will be shopping around for a new dvd deal.

I also need to see if I can pay to keep my Cox.net email when I move. Or, alternately, see if Cox is in Portland. Offffffff to Google some answers.
