Grumble grumble grumble snarl.

I looked at my cable bill and it had had another "price adjustment" and we all know it is adjusted up.

I called the customer retention department. I was civil but made it clear I was not happy. She lopped off nearly 50 bucks per month. So long time customers they just screw and give big "discounts" to new customers. I now have one of the new customer discounts after 30 years as a customer.

Our cable bill is stupid high, but Mrs Carrera is home most of the day and loves old movies, crime dramas, and home improvement shows, and live sports, er games. She was recording two basket ball games at once, watching a third and then jumping over to golf game the other night. She has been watching all the crime shows on Investigation Discovery, and other crime networks. If I ever just disappear, please have the local cop see if we suddenly have a new big flower bed or concrete pad under the storage shed. She has seen all the shows on how the bad guys got caught.

I like F1 and racing, Science channel and Velocity channel, National Geographic and several others. HBO, and the rest make for a big bill.
That and fast internet, it all adds up. It just adds up a lot less now.
