ahhhhh those types of bills! im going through the same thing here. you gotta watch big business' like a hawk! they really are out to get us....i found out i was paying for 2 services on my home phone that i specifically asked to not have...i didnt check my bill good and after 3 months i did and i was being charged $15/mo i asked for it to be credited and they said they had no record of me asking to not have the services....what am i gonna due sue them? this is how they make money $50 here and there over time and hundreds of thousands of customers adds up.

the incress they put me on , was a 3rd the service..... and it was for a service i cant use..... which is home phone .... my line is strickly built to run a dsl... so there charging me something that directly violates my contract.... i told em to shut it off or change it... right now i am checking out satalite inet.... its one of my only options at the moment..... but any things better then this frankly

i was looking into clearwire....we just got them dudes here in vegas...seems they got some decent plans

yea im to far out for clear wire.... on the plus side i can use the sat service about any wehre when i travel if i pick up the hardware

time for my chapter of kephart! night lurkers!

mmmmmm insomina in the middle of the night ... atleast i got 4 or 5 hours

i do find it kinda funny with norman borlaug..... you save a few million people.... and no one even knows who you are.... and by funny i find it sad.... but mind ya Patrick Swayze on the other hand kicks the bucket and every ones aflutter

norman borlaug... wish i knew. Your right though poeple get all nutty with their celeb worship.

I was traveling shortly after Michael Jackson's death... I counted 20+ magazines with his face on the coverm at one news stand. At most i could understand 5 or 6 but 20? Who really cares that much...

norman borlaug a rather intersting man ... we owe him a whole lot...

You are right, Google is an amazing thing. One minute i know nothing, the next, just a little bit. Funny how men can make fundemental major changes in the world and be essentally anonamous.
