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.
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.
I'm excited about the Olympic hockey although there's no way I can watch it or tape it all. Every game is televised. Men's and women's. Live. Team USA games and gold medal games will be commercial free.
The only time I ever cried over a sporting event was the 1980 Miracle game. I was almost 14 years old, and chanting "USA! USA!" was new, not cheesy.

Is there meaning in those words?
So. Frelling. Bored.
How's your dad, sweetie?

Wow. I choke up at the torch run, never mind any actual sporting triumph.

Seems to be fine. They had to put in two stents, so he's in the hospital overnight, but I spoke to him about an hour ago and he sounds fine. Just means that I'm stuck in San Diego overnight and bored out of my head.
I'm a horrible son.
