Funny....I just dumped TWC today because they are not offering Showtime in our area due to contact dispute. Now I feel twice as good, not to mention the 130.00 a month we are saving.

There is life with out television. If you’re brave enough. And strong enough.

If not, just stay there on the couch.

I was on the phone all morning comparing prices and service so I could get rid of my bundle wth TWC. ATT the SAME service, plus fiber optics, two year guaranteed rate......$126. a month vs. TWC 250.00 a month. I would like to know how stupid I have been.
