yeah all three, maybe it's a normal price for super high speed + super channel lineup, but neither the cable nor the internet is anything spectacular. 150mb down / 10mb up, capped at 1.5TB (i've never had an issue with those speeds, though i wish the upload rate was higher). i love the landline more than i should. oh and if you have tivo, you've probably recently noticed what are called preroll ads when you are viewing dvr content. call your cable provider and demand that they remove them. they will definitely put up a fight, but they can remove them. there's no reason they should profit and you not get a discount. i got so irritated having to fast forward through them i called (hammered) and 'furious' that my young children were exposed to scantily dressed people twerking in the ads. they promptly removed them (the second time i called at least).

i'd kill for xfinity or fios. i always get a kick out of ppl complaining about the two, they really don't know how good they have it. i don't have anything obnoxious and my bill is around $260/mo. i'll echo jfdan tho and say that blue ridge has unreal customer service. i have called and someone came out within an hour or two on more than one occasion. i dont like that they drive up my god damned driveway unannounced though. they do it every quarter for testing or something. at least they respect my stop signs.

i'm not MVNO, but i've done prepaid for major carriers for almost 10 years. i'm on ATT prepaid now and it's $40/mo for everything. int'l phone off ebay unlocked for dirt cheap add a $99 square warranty, good to go. was in a contract with sprint before that and hated it. so i forced my phone to roam 100% of the time (with the help of a $3 app roam control). sprint sent me an airave (like a cell hotspot) thinking i was in a serious dead zone that i never unboxed. they likely figured it out and politely asked me to stop roaming when it continued. i didn't. they said i had a week or something to find a new carrier and they would waive contractual obligations.

well the bear box finally suffered its first L ...

There was a t-bar in 2017? I also used to work with Peter, good dude.

@JFskiDan I'm almost certain it was steel. On 115 near the racetrack they always have huge pieces of pipeline that look identical, these are just much smaller diameter. I also said the same thing to myself about toast and mowing...

i just watched a couple vids, those poles definitely weren't there last season. i can't remember if the banner about vista lodge was there either. also, dabbin on slow sign. what about it.

I mean it could mean nothing but new telephone poles and piping. Can't remember if the poles were there. Someone cross ref with Jeff's vid

I dunno, I'll have to check the class. Even then, I'm worried about a metronome / swaying effect.

yeah i haven't been able to get you that sofa so this is the next best thing.

originally i though about mounting it to a hitch but i don't know shit about that stuff and quickly found out about tongue weight and that it wouldn't work. so now i'm thinking aobut something similar to this. green line being square tube connected at 90deg angle with a fitting like in the image (though circular or something detachable) so i could slide it when i wanted to store it. red dots are the hooks in the bed to tie it down to. if everything worked, i could put down the tailgate, push it in and put the tailgate back up for when in motion. i know a very, very good welder who i'm going to ask for advice or suggestions that might work better. looks crazy but i can't think of any other method.

thanks for that tip. i figured if i did it the easy way, i'd take a wire brush on a drill to it, get off whatever paint i could with added focus on rusted spots, spray on whatever stops rust, prime and then paint. still gotta figure out how to fabricate something to attach it to the truck. thinking square tube connected to look like a lambda from the side. too much tongue weight for a hitch womp womp.

i'd just worry about whatever is under the paint to continue to rust in the elements. which is sort of weird since the chairs sit out in the weather anyway on a rope, so i dont get it. i couldn't care less about paint flaking off or it looking pristine. paging @JFskiDan - is there a safe, easy an option for long term if cosmetics aren't particularly an issue?

ever find out if there is lead paint on it? now that i'm seeing all the work it's going to take, i'm considering renting a sandblaster or hiring it out...

i spy a second chair...

lol you have a lot more ambition than me. mine has been a lawn ornament since dec.

when i was growing up, the ritas closest to me sold bernie's pretzels, others probably did too. way better than pretzel factory but deep delco so i don't think anyone here knows about them. if you're ever in the area (Aldan) stop for some. i promise you won't be disappointed.

very true. unrelated - get a burger from spinellis as soon as you can.

in the area, it's shoprite or weis, that's it. basically a quarter mile from one another. some people have serious loyalty to one or the other. personally i just go to SR because it's closer. though it is bigger and there is a much larger selection. biggest in the US (or at least it was when it was built, i think it still is). was also told (not sure if true, but looks like it) that the facade was inspired by cabela's design. still waiting on the damn pretzel factory to be done tho... we can't all have 10 wegmans within a stones throw.

are you one of those anti shoprite people.

tracks are fat. do you have a zero turn or a tractor? for some reason, i always thought you were some lawnmowing masochist who enjoyed the all of the walking.

as long as they dont touch the parking lot scene i couldn't care less. ... and, even though i doubt it, i'm quietly hoping the pass price increase has something to do with a blue/cmlbk combo ...

i still wonder how salty blue was when ATT put that huge fuckin tower smack in the backdrop of where the weddings take place i get a good laugh everytime i think about it

They already make a wknd out of it, except they stay in airbnbs. I'm not saying they wouldn't be utilized, but it would really bump up the events revenue.
