It was actually a guy who worked there that initially gave me the idea. It was after the first year promotional service when I was going to get the "big slam" cause you know after that first year it basically doubles. He told me to turn off my service for a week then I'd be reestablish as a new customers. It worked well for awhile...until I think they caught on to me playing that tip. I sat them out pretty good last year (it was warm out so still plenty else to do though my grand kids got a bit tired of watching old disney movies...lol...which I had plenty of as I owned a neighborhood video store once) maybe why they just opted for a four dollar increase...shocked me it was that easy but four is better than forty. I highly recommend it for anyone wanting to maintain a reasonably set amount you consider fair for the services you want included...I never reneged on what I wanted as they will try and subtract something to so called bring the price down. I don't watch a lot of movies but it's one feature I enjoy having at my fingertips when I get in the mood. A small but nice luxury, just like having the extra boxes and convenience of watching tv in different area's of the house, besides I've probably done paid for those boxes ten times over.

I know what you mean about having time invested and wanting to keep up until whatever the end may be. There are some characters you root for and others you wish would finally get bitten...(lol) like the one guy this past Sunday. (and the one eyed priest) He was always rather drap, he was getting quite a bit of screen time this year making it rather boring....but I didn't figure it would lead up to a scheme by the whisperers to plant an insider. The whole whisperer thing is creepy and Alpha plays a damn good role being deranged as she is but I am getting a bit drawn out waiting for some sort of climax to it all. I don't think Negan is serious about this whisperer thing, I think he has to much self aligned allegiance to Ricks daughter but ultimately in the end that may play down to when this thing is over with the whisperers will it be enough for the rest of them to forgive him for his past sins if he comes out a hero with this whisperer deal. If so it may lead to him gaining some respect out of them, if not it may win him at least his release from them. Considering the show has a real vacuum issue if you ask me when it comes to finding new leadership an audience can grab onto like with Rick it may come down to them settling on Negan...but I guess we'll have to wait and see.
