Drs appointment, Wegmans, and Spectrum to argue my bill. RP in the man cave to lower my blood pressure
Cut the cord and go with Sling, best thing I've ever done.

EDIT: Obviously, a bit of an exaggeration, but it was a very good thing to do.
Thanks but losing my son and Wives channels won't go over well right now
That's the issue I'm having too. I have Verizon Fios and they're about to drop all Disney channels, including ABC and ESPN. I guess I really don't need Monday Night Football but what am I supposed to do about The Bachelor and Dancing with the Stars?
digital antenna, they are broadcast after all.  You are line of site from the empire state building,
although Hudson yards, may affect your receiving the signal.
But not ESPN. Plus the more important feature is the DVR. Does TiVo still exist?

AUSTIN (KXAN) -- A funeral service for late World War II veteran Richard Overton is expected to take place on Jan. 12, according to Military Veterans Program Administrator Allen Bergeron.

The service is projected to begin at 11 a.m. at Shoreline Church at 15201 Burnet Road located north of Austin. The funeral will be open to the public and Overton will be buried in the Texas State Cemetery on 909 Navasota Street.
wish him well, wish I could be there to say goodbye.
will have a special smoke in his honor.
Yep, I certainly plan to have a smoke for his funeral.
Been a long time since we had a Virtual Herf, we should have one at his funeral.

Another Spectrum defect, they also dick you like a prison gang for DVR service too.

I looked into every option imaginable before moving into the Condo where Spectrum is included.

The real problem is they got you by the balls with the internet service.  If you don’t package tv & internet they roll you over and dick you like a prison gang for the internet.
So true.  We have a regional provider called Suddenlink, which bought all the infrastructure in our area from Verizon a few years back and now have a lock because no one else wants to put in new fiber.  Same song and dance about the bundle vs the internet only service.  The tech seems to be about 5 years behind, as they aren't motivated to invest to compete.  Sorry bastiges.

Costa Rica was one of the best vacations I ever went on. It was also one of the most active; zip lining, white water rafting, hiking, etc.

I shouldn't set your expectations too high. I think you'll enjoy it though.

If I can catch a sailfish on a fly rod all expectations will be exceeded.

I've had Comcast and Dish and they both suck.
Spectrum bought out my contract and yes I did the package. I have no problem with them what ever.
Well here are the major Spectrum problems:  They don’t offer but one outdoors channel, their high definition sux royally, some channels they don’t even offer in high definition and their high speed Internet is very unstable.
Other than that, they're fine...

I have Verizon FIOS and it is a solid if e pensive service.  They are now in a contract pushing match with Disney/ABC who will shut off access to ABC and ESPN and other channels on Dec 31 at 5:00.
