@thirdchild: wow...all of you posting about them being rednecks...ha...

I wonder if they'd appreciate their internet line at home being shot regularly.

Ha, nice list...I've played four of them. Doom, Mario, DDR, Tetris.

@Mali Burek: Cable TV originated as an ad-free service. The reason one paid was that one would be able to avoid ads. However, a company's lust for money is often never satisfied, so we have to pay AND watch ads.

There's one key thing wrong with this post. It's based on the idea that we can get everything we want without having to pay for it. Either we pay for the service, or we look at ads. Have you ever noticed that trend?

@yourcitylovesyou: Where I get my beans is no secret or special place, really. I'll usually pick up whatever I want from Giant Eagle or Walmart. Which brand I choose is based on cost. I generally stick with the cheaper one, which brews fine enough coffee for me. The subtle difference in taste of the pricer coffee…

For the sake of PR? Who on earth would know about this except T-Mobile? I certainly didn't until I read just now that they blocked it.

@Inkmonkey: Because the story is dark and spooky and weird.

@jaycustom79: I gathered that it'd be different. I would buy it but the price of the stuff is what keeps me away. I just stick with folgers instant if I want instant coffee, and I have a thermos if I'm going somewhere that won't have good coffee.

I prefer my coffee black, but from many methods of brewing, whether that be drip, percolation, press, or other method. They all have a unique flavor and I appreciate them all in different ways.

@the_Sleepwalker: Yeah, that'd be a great idea. But who would be up to the challenge?

@OMEGAMAN: yup, that about sums it up.

I just WISH there was a good phone built for JUST talking and texting and was easy to find amidst all the crap that's put out there.

@salaczar: zing?

@jvac88: Oh? How'd you get it without a contract?

You can run your business how you want (paying the government an exorbinant amount of your revenue) until it becomes profitable. That's when they step in and tell you that your business model works too well and other poor companies just can't keep up with how well you're doing, so you need to stop it.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO...!!!!!!

@AlphaBob: Cell usage trends perhaps, so they know how to maintain towers or where to build new ones, etc. That kind of data could definitely come in handy.

Because that extra $70 is good for a bunch of cafe lattes, or a good dinner with your significant other.

Doomed to pieces of tape that are too long or too short...Q.Q
