That sucks.... What sucks with me is that I have a really smart Samsung 65 inch TV with no friggin actual tv remote to switch between the different apps like Netflix, AJ, or Amazon. So I am stuck watching Filipino tv on Direct TV. I have seriously looked around every freaking where for the remote....... Hopefully the dang baby didn't put it in the trash because trash day is TODAY

 

I've been able to buy replacement remotes for all kinds of devices on the internet.

Still no Verizon service...

 

Alexa is dead...

I hope they are prepared to credit everyone affected. That's not good enough.

I can explain it to you. But I can't understand it for you.

I just got another text, "we have detected an outage affecting your fios services, we are working to fix it, we expect to restore service by 5/30 at 6:23 am."

 

Really? You just now detected the outage? 

 

There's some kind of Verizon 2 day repair guarantee. I gotta look into it.

Tomorrow is day  6.

Purring cat on lap, affectionate miu man.

With use of her athletic tail, she has again just swept multiple cheaps out of the bag from which we are eating, special talent miu man.

 

Mrs. T-B. considers cat to be fat, accusatory she man.

We conclude that cat is merely quite short-legged, waddle she man.

This reminds us of a great line from Cousinette T-B., say she man:  "I'm not fat -- I'm just short for my weight!"

They were good up until now. I'm going back to optimum...

Besides, Verizon bought huff post and yahoo a year ago, and I haven't seen any major changes in biased reporting. 

I'm not giving them 6000 dollars of my money a year.
