PG&E does offer this plan where they calculate your average bill for a year and you just pay the same amount every month, but I'm not sure how it accounts for your actual usage if you're over or under at the end of the year.
If you're the company in N.O. my cousin uses, when you finally get someone out to check the meter, you send a ginormous bill.
If Sue is around (or other Canadians), do Canadians use government/administration the way we do here in the U.S., or does "government" refer to the present administration, as in Europe?
I have now considered the usage of "government" so much, I'm not sure how we use it.
People def. refer to the current administration as the Government.
People will also use goverment to describe the bureacracy that supports the Government.
The governing and opposition parties as a whole are the Parliament federally, legislature or legislative assembly, provincially.
The elected ministers in charge of portfolios are Cabinet or Privy Council (fed.) or Executive Council or Government in Council.

My electric bill (taking into account that my A/C and heat are both electric) runs from $30/mo in the spring and fall to $120 in the winter (if it's really cold out) or summer (if it's really hot all month).
How is it only 2:30? Has time stopped!?!
New water heater is installed and our water is back on - just waiting for it to heat up enough for me to take a shower. We pay about $30/month for water.
But we only pay $6 a month for our trash valet. Never had such great garbage service before and I used to pay a TON more.
Wow, that's amazing!
