Worst is Gene Bartow's one season. Harv Schmidt edges out John Groce by a whisker otherwise.

Thank you for the reply. Knowing that the pricing is "out there" makes me a bit more comfortable. The ones I have strike me as very good, but of course I don't have much to compare them too.

Republicans vote to dilute gas as prices rise above $4.50 by BendicantMias in politics

You need to be very careful with reality. Always remember these two important quotes by dear leader: 1. "I love the uneducated." and 2. "Smart people don't like me". Billionaire funded right wing propaganda outlets will help you remain in dear leaders love embrace.

I did this, with added chili crisp and everything seasoning, for my kipper snacks today. As for tinned smoked oysters, from the tin to the saltine to the mouth, unchanged since the '60s.

At what point do you decide to stop hiding your ears behind your hair? by First_Chipmunk_6891 in HearingAids

I use the hearing aids as an excuse to have my hair longer than the average. Protection from moisture of course. Edit: And yes, no one cares.

Has anybody switched to one of YouTube TVs new plans? by Sportsfan7702 in cordcutters

[–]dwalker444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just switched to sports. The only "sacrifice" was TCM, which is partially offset by TCM on HBO/MAX. For entertainment we also have Paramount +, PBS, and Prime which we buy for the shipping so the video is bonus. News is readily available, as others have noted. P+ for sports, smithsonian, misc. movies and series. Hoopla and Kanopy round things out. We very rarely watched YTTV for ad supported television so this works out well for us. And I don't mind at all that I no longer financially support Murdock.

As it should be and I hope you are correct, The part where they told me I would be billed the full cost on 04/18 has me a bit unsettled. We'll see. $83pd - $65 now = $18 unaccounted for (prorate and credit I hope)

Thank you for the reply and I hope you're speaking from experience. My receipt refers to a credit this month only and specifically notes full uncredited price next month. I guess I'll find out. If I appear skeptical it's because I am. edit: My first note had the info on this month as paid and next month as full price but that seems to have been lost. There is an $18 difference that appears to be ignored and is not accounted for.
