Same in Denver, kindof. Since you weren't physically issued a ticket, they technically have to personally serve to you force payment. So if you don't pay the ticket that came in the mail and 90 days goes by without paying and they haven't served you, the ticket goes away. And I think they only have a few people going

I've actually been pleased w/ Comcast/Xfinity in the 2+ years I've had them. I get internet speeds as advertised (or better), and have always been able to negotiate a decent rate for my cable/internet package (currently paying ~$115 after taxes for internet & digital cable w/ hd-dvr & HBO).

My wife works a lot of weekends ... and I like to ski/hike/camp a lot of weekends. Sometimes I can hitch a ride up to the mountains, but often I need our 2nd car to get up there. Otherwise we'd be good candidates for this, as I work from home - we have pretty different work schedules, so it could get tricky though.

Biggest benefit of Prime shipping is that trips to Target/WalMart/hardware store /etc are cut way down. Monetarily, that saves some gas $$, but also saves my sanity because I hate going to stores like that, unless I absolutely need something right away, I can wait the 2 days for it to show up from Amazon.

That only works if you're in the same local market as your team, or if the game you're interested in watching is being locally broadcast. Let me know when I can get all the Patriots games here in Denver OTA!

Note - your computer has to be relatively new to cast a Chrome tab reliably. I have a 5+ year old laptop and the quality of video sucks. Oh well. The Chromecast works great for the "official apps" though on any machine.

NBC streams their Sunday Night Football games on the web (they have mobile apps as well). And if your provider allows you access, you can also get Watch ESPN online or mobile, which broadcasts MNF.

A lot of people don't live in the same area anymore as the team they root for ... myself included.

Good to hear ... this showed up on my Netflix recommendation list, was planning on giving it a try when I had a chance.

I've done the same thing for my last few 'big' races (a 10 miler and a couple of half-marathons); highly recommended (both HH schedules and syncing it to Google Calendar)! Here was my calendar in May ... That last set of 400's was brutal, reminded me of my glory days of running XC in high school:

Damn, then, just think of all the child actors actually in Breaking Bad. They're definitely a lost cause.

Good list! A couple of corrections/omissions:

The 100 is also acceptable, same basic design as the 50 w/ some more power. SS went of the rails when it created monstrosities such as this:

Ah the good old SS-50. Clean and simplistic design, before they got all overly complicated.

There's in iOS app for Amazon streaming. No android though ... which sucks, since we recently sold our old iPad and got a Nexus tablet. So I'd have to borrow my wife's iPhone to use Amazon on the Chromecast (assuming they ever add Chromecast functionality). Perhaps they'd add it to their web video player though...

My wish list:

Yep I have that on Comcast, works great, and at that price it's worth it after less than a year when compared to rental fees.

I bought a solid Motorola DOCSIS 3.0 modem for $75. At $4 month I'd have paid it off in less than 2 years. At $7/month (which Comcast was charging), I paid it off in less than a year. And the modem comes w/a 1 yr warranty, so it'd be covered during the period where I hadn't "paid it off" yet.

I bought my own modem and had no problem activating it w/ Comcast (it was on their approved list) ... didn't even need a tech to do it ... just plug the modem into the cable, turn it on, let it sit for a while (half hour +), then plug your computer directly into the modem (no router), and when you open a browser a
