You would have to look at each one and compare, but my impression is that most paid services give access to all 3 of the credit reports on a weekly or monthly basis, not just 1 or maybe 2 with the free ones. More importantly, they usually offer a lot of help with dealing with identity theft, not just monitoring for…

Life is pain...

It hasn’t come out yet, we can still hope and dream.

I signed up through my bank, so I think there was a discount, but I’m paying $13 something month for Experian’s credit monitoring, could go down to $8 a month for just monitoring Experian and not all 3. I can’t remember if it includes any insurance or help with ID theft. I don’t know if I’d say I’m highly satisfied,…

I don’t use Trusted ID Premier, but I think it’s fair to point out that it includes identity theft insurance and automatic alerts of any changes to your credit files at Equifax, Experian, and Transunion.

I’m in a big city, not really a big city person, but I do appreciate all the options we have with, well, everything. I’m trying to decide if I can handle seeing It in IMAX (haven’t seen it yet). Thanks for the reminder that if I do, I need to shoot for the earliest showing possible. Though I still probably won’t sleep…

My impression always was that the grandparents were old and sick and weak from lack of food/medical care because they were so poor - I don’t think the book said those things, I just assumed. I never really thought of them as malingering, or his father. He just lost his job, I didn’t think the book painted him as not…

I have only been one time to one in Austin, but it was one of my best movie experiences ever. Large, comfortable chairs, small theaters with not a ton of people watching with you, they actually enforce rules like no cellphones to protect your good movie theater experience, and if you want anything to eat or drink at…

Especially the contact lenses, if needed. Hair color and facial features can change drastically over time, but I really hate it when they have different colored eyes for the same person as a child and an adult.

And this one...

She’s a “word of faith,” “name it and claim it,” prosperity gospel flavor of Christian, kind of a different gospel from what Jesus taught. I’m not sure that the context of this quote applies to this conversation, but if anything she would be against the use of any “negative” or derogatory word.

Spoilers, maybe

I work at home and struggle with staying on a schedule...I might do this for myself.

And whose intelligence is inversely related to how hot she is? AWESOME!!!

I never thought I would miss the BWAAAAAH.

It is nerdy and fun. It’s not perfect, but it’s a fun read, especially if you lived through the 80's. I didn’t think all the relationship stuff discussed here was a creepy as this article makes it out to be. He was an immature teenage boy who had spent his whole life in a fantasy world, and the book is entirely from…

Yeah, wow, I feel the same way. I saw him as a very socially immature/inexperienced teenager and, sure, he did a lot of stuff wrong, but their relationship was also very much based on their shared obsession and mutual respect for each other’s intelligence and mastery of the game. I thought his promise to take things…

Seriously, most ZPG’ers save the hostility and vitriol for baby #4.
