I paid about $80 per month to CenturyLink for phone/internet, but the best they offer is 3MB service. Pretty sad. Had Comcast for several years, I forget the exact speed, it was basically instantaneous. But they constantly had what I referred to as "mystery pricing", which of course only went...

Funny you mention streets. We've got one I drive over to get to my garage, has this six inch dip in it, kind of a reverse speed-bump. Drove over it again today, just grumbling to myself that it's been there 25 years or so, I'll be long dead and gone before it ever gets repaired. An HOA does have...

Oh Mark, so glad I live in a standard single family home, no HOA. My neighbors are all decent, we basically police ourselves, no rules, no committees to discuss things. If I want to plant pink roses instead of white, it's my choice. Had a neighbor who put up a satellite dish in the late '90s...

Thanks for the info. I'm a bit behind the times, but want a dual tuner, and not have to pay TIVO fees. Been with DISH for eight years, it's just fits my personality and I'm really happy with them. Called and bitched, and they did cut my price. Also got CenturyLink to cut my landline price and...
