Go third party.

Use bing.com cashback for 35% off, buy a new line and then cancel the service.

You at least get 35% off list that way.

Our cats almost found themselves homeless on the street this afternoon. Just as I was about to go get ready for my trip this week, I heard a loud crash and all three came running out of the living room. Turns out one or more had climbed into a hanging plant and pulled the plant and its hook out of the wall, which created a huge mess. I had about 15 minutes to spare to clean it up as best I could, and explain what happened to my partner so he isn't surprised when he gets home tonight and sees it.

I'm still pretty mad about it.

Just saw a woman get busted on Amtrak for no ticket. She tried to avoid the conductor by moving around but he caught her anyway. She was just asked to leave the train at the last stop.

Note to teh populace: if your car dies, do not decline the option of towing when the alternative is to leave the car on the street overnight in downtown Wilmington. :rolleyes:

This happened to a guy next to me in the sleeper car one time pretty late at night, it was mostly him smoking his maryj that put people on notice...

That's an intriguing idea - only :rolleyes: part is bing cashback ends at the end of the month and I can envision fighting for the $140.

Hi Box,

I have a table full of them. You never know how many staplers you have until you start emptying out cubes and book cases. They're everywhere. Like Tribbles. Bookends anyone? I have about a hundred of them. :rolleyes:
