Free DVR Finished

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!
