A long time ago (over a year), Altice USA nee Optimum nee Cablevision sent me a letter saying the lost a class action lawsuit and I could get a free DVR service (or something else I can't remember) as part of settlement. Truth be told, I had no idea. So I filled out the form and voila! Free DVR. Had it about a year I guess. It was cool. Most shows are also on the On demand channel but that is slow sometimes.
Anyway, the time has come and gone and now I don't have my free DVR. They would like me to pay $12.95 a month for this. Nope. I pay this company enough moo-la-di every month. You have your cable service (I have HBO & Showtime so it's not cheap), your modem, the cable boxes (and remotes), the internet service and my landline phone service. All in all it's over $250 a month. If I could get live sports reliably I might cut said cord. But for now it is what it is. That's living in 2018 I guess. And before you ask, I also have Netflix, Amazon Prime and Hulu.
Assorted musings:
I am on a cut right now. 1600 calories yesterday, I'm on track for less today. I'll be getting very cranky very soon. Phase 1 is 20 lbs off. Should take 2+ months.
I wore a Mets cap 2x to gym this week. I'm making progress in liking my team again.
The weather has been odd.
The mancave got an upgrade last week. New Power Reclining Couch and Power Reclining Chair. Sweet.
NJ HS Baseball starts Friday. YSSS is looking for a good one this year.
Speaking of YSSS, he's playing baseball in Omaha in late June. More to come.
OSSS is away at college and doing great. Dean's List, steady girl. He's happy.
BWSS is taking piano lessons. She's pretty good.
I'm still me, SoulSlam. C-Ya!
