I was CenturyLink @ $35/month for 40/5Mpbs. Was offered 80/10Mbps for $50 for life. Done deal. Obviously every household will differ with speed needs. This + YTTV and my Internet/video is less than $100 monthly. Totally acceptable. (For me.)

I dropped Dish and went with YTTV. Never going back. Totally happy with the service. Philo is a great add-on service to mix in some of the stuff that is missing (Discovery, Science, etc.).

Please let me add...

Yes. This. I opened the door with Little Big Planet and it started something fun for both of us. She’s 12 now on Overwatch, but those initial LBP levels taught problem solving, cooperation, and communication.

At least it has lights in the bumper. Stock ZR2 has none.

Good summary.

I had one of these as a kid. It never let me down. It was awesome. I miss that little thing.

Don’t forget the Carver m400-t cube amplifier. I own two of these ridiculous beasts and they are amazing.

I’m still a Google Voice user since go-live. I Hangouts with some of my friends. I have one Allo buddy. And I use Android Messenger as my primary from my...um...er...primary number...but damn. Let’s get it straight Google. How many times are you going to attempt this before you get it right?

As stated...as long as it dries between uses, it’s generally fine. My towel bar is straight in line with my heater/AC duct and every day it’s dries fairly quickly from heat/air movement. I wash it about once a week and even then I do a deep inhale on it to test for freshness. I’m pretty sensitive to smells (even my…

I just got a new stainless farmhouse sink. It works like this.

My main beef was the co-dependence had grown to a point of need rather than want. I lost my identity in the midst of it all. And when it failed, I had to figure out my direction all over again.

Ask Google!

I respectfully disagree. You are entitled to your opinion, however I’m rolling Carver since 1986 and can say that “loud” isn’t the only feature of Carver amplifiers.

Dude. What model is your amp? I have two Carver M-400t amplifiers and they have proven solid, stable, and sound incredible. Are your Forte IIs in good shape? What is your price for the lot?

I opted to splurge on the Pebble Time Steel and I have not regretted it for one second. I don’t rely on apps for anything. I simply want the time, date, temperature, fitness tracker, and legible notifications. It has filled that position nicely. I’d like more detailed info such as a heart rate monitor or GPS, but not…

I come from the days of postal mail, telephone response (yes...”Please enter your income by pressing the number keys.” (Gasp!)), et. al. I used Turbo Tax for years until last year’s H&R Block’s “free deductions” commercials. So I prepared my taxes using both TT and H&R and my refund was not only higher with H&R, it…

Oh. I know how they work. I deal with them as an adult. But approaching them as uncontrollable is part of the problem. You control your emotions. You control your stress. I appreciate your vantage completely. I once thought as you do. I once had a panic attack and didn’t understand it at all. I thought I was dying.…

My boxer saved me in my days of darkness. I can’t speak highly enough about him. He passed along this summer and I felt horrible...like I made him carry me for far too long. But he never let me down. Not once.

I tend to engage with smart, independent, well-traveled people as a rule. Good on you.
