Correct. Insanity, right? Welcome to rural America.

I pay $100 a month in a rural area for 12down/500kup by bridging two DSL connections, the only thing I can get in the woods. I can't watch Hulu and browse the Internet at the same time.

Countdown to ads in your dreams... Is there a Futurama episode that has that?

I can't relate nor comprehend your loss. You are so thoughtful and brave to put this out there. Sending lots of love your way.

Also interested in this question. I was so excited for it until the developer statement about performance issues....

I agree with the post above. As an American and as someone going through something similar, if it comes down to either asking for some funds from friends and family to aid in taking care of your family -- or risking medical debt -- take any help you can get. As you said in the original post, debt will start to compound and can get out of control fast. Further, managing that debt and your medical issue at the same time may take a wild toll on you and your family.

Take care of you and yours first, pay it forward when you are healthy. People won't think you're an a-hole if you are responsible with what they give. Anyone who does think badly of you for asking for help.... You maybe should reevaluate your connection with them because id bet people that care just want you back to good health.

Best of luck figuring it all out, I know it can be hard.

I have this for the max and it works very well. Had it for a year with sporadic use and it still looks brand new.

You are so right. They DO love tomatoes! They also have destroyed the 12 grape vines I used for wine (in Virginia). Usually I come home from a long weekend to completely stripped vines.

That was outstanding. I still have chills!

"New Japan is an Indie" 😂😂😂

Thanks for setting up the live thread, OP!

Zero hour has been good so far. Super excited about the show.
