Hey guys, I just wanted to give you all a heads up. As far as I can tell, there was a price hike in our Time Warner cable bills for August 2010 here in Rochester. I don’t remember getting a warning about it, but I also don’t tend to read their letters that usually start with them stroking themselves off.

Here is my last bill the nazis sent me compared to my current bill. Sneaky how they changed it around a bit so the details are hidden and it almost seems like I am saving money! Again, I didn’t change anything on my plan at all.

Thanks for saving me money guys!

Anyways, dropping cable is long overdue. I will miss it probably once every 2 weeks when I have that moment where watching sports center would have been nice, but there is no way to justify this sort of expense on something that is used so infrequently. It really does suck that there are no other outlets to get, say, ESPN, but I have my podcasts and the internet and hulu and netflix. What else do I need? Certainly not worth it.

Drop cable boys!
