One Note One Trick Singing Pony Sez:
How can Cox justify me paying almost three times what a noob can buy into the ponziesquepyramid scheme for.
(sorry that I ended that sentence in a preposition or whatever. i'm too confused and upset to do otherwise.)

In fact, the answer to my question is quite simple:
I'm a lazy dumbass hooked on the entry level drug they provided about fifteen or twenty years ago.
Still . . . I'm just a bit peeved about paying for someone else's CyberUmbilical Cord.

but I'll get over it. =)
like my virtual anger over obamacare . . .
