We have signed up for our phone company's version of a "three-for-one" deal being offered by our local cable company - who refuses to extend their services to our dead end road. Basically the local cable company is offering high speed internet, cable tv and phone service for a low price - but ONLY if you live within the village limits. They won't stretch the cable to our house, because we're one curve out of their "convenience zone.".
So, our phone company is totally jumping all over the cable company's laziness and picking up people like ME as their new customers.
Oh, how I love it when competition reaches out and touches someone.
On Saturday morning, the pearly white phone truck will roll into our dirveway and hook up two of our television sets to a heavenly satellite dish, and we will receive SIXTY channels of programming to replace our measly THREE fuzzy, blurry current channels.
No more watching the Poop Guy's hour-long infomercial about healthy turds on Sunday afternoons.
And BEST OF ALL, this means that I will get to watch ALL-DAY marathons of Little House on the Prairie.
Peace, till next
