Well, it's just good to know that when the chips are down and things look grim you'll feed off the girl who loves you to save your own ass!

[NAFDA] Spike-centric discussion. Lusty, lewd (only occasionally crude), risqué (and frisqué), bawdy (Oh, lawdy!), flirty ('cuz we're purty), raunchy talk inside. Caveat lector.

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

Comcast doesn't give a shit because you're not under contract. I specifically asked a guy if they were doing anything to compete with the AT&T U-Verse, which would give me cable and Internet for almost half the damn price of Comcast, and I said I was thinking of switching, and he said I was free to do so. Didn't try to convince me to stay at all.

Because he didn't need to. He knew I'd stay because changing would be a hassle and I was happy with the service if not the price. I knew nothing about the AT&T service.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

leh. I want to switch but I despise the hoops you have to jump through to get any kind of service.

Art Crawl!!!

Also, what? That makes no sense at all

Because dvr is so high in demand that they're limiting to their 3 service customers.

I have the DVR lease with only digital basic, but I got it when they first started offering them.

That makes no sense at all

You are apparently not down the rabbit hole that is Comcast. I loathe them, but they're the only cable company that serves my area and the satellite people tell me I have have too many trees.

A-men. I just got off the phone with them, and in addition to the $17 more a month for the HD box and DVR, they're charging $35 for the installation (half for installation, half for activation) and $100 for a deposit for the damn box, which I had to pay now before they would schedule the delivery time. Now I have to make sure I get off work at the bookstore in time for the Saturday afternoon delivery on the 26th.

Occasionally I’m callous and strange

Yay for me! I have set up utilities at my new place. Except internet, because i'm back and forth between Qwest (through which i have phone service, but is slow) and Comcast. Both cost lots. I am reticent to get involved with Comcast due to their less than stellar reputation. And who knows, maybe there's open wireless in the building already that the landlord doesn't know about? Ok, that's a poor and dangerous idea with all the online banking and financial stuff i do.....

But i'm pleased for having phone, electric, and gas set up! I feel like a grownup.

Mine are clean. But I need to make dinner.
