My damned electric bill is 100 dollars more than it was last month. And that is with the AC turned OFF!

And yes, I checked and the readings are actual, not estimated.

And we heat with gas.

What a crock of shite!  :mad:

No. What is the fucking point. I already know what they'll say; the "off season rates kicked in while you were still running the air"; which is nothing short of a giant crock of shite. But wtf can I do about it?

It isn't worth raising my bp over the asinine individuals running the city utility service.  :mad:

The reason I suggested it is because I know someone who just went through the same thing got hers replaced.  If it stays high it might be worth the aggravation in the long run.

Seriously? Is it such a slow news day that we have to interrupt programming every 10-15 minutes to cover the weather in Illinois?  :mad:

I guess when that shit actually gets here they'll just suspend all regular programming to talk about the weather!  :rolleyes:

Faux news is reporting "20 tornadoes" in Indiana are likely due to this system!  :groan:

Hey, how are they going to get people to watch if they don't hype everything and try and scare folks to death? 

It's all about the money, honey.   :wink:

Keeping a lil' eye on the radar every once in a while is more illuminating and far less annoying.

"You've probably noticed that opinion pollsters go out of their way to include as many morons as possible in surveys ... I think it's dangerous to inform morons about what their fellow morons are thinking. It only reinforces their opinions. And the one thing worse than a moron with an opinion is lots of them." -- Scott Adams

In other words: Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups.  ;)

"It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends upon his not understanding it." -- Upton Sinclair

"Hitler is gone, but if the majority of our fellow citizens are more susceptible to the slogans of fear and race hatred than to those of peaceful accommodation and mutual respect among human beings, our political liberties remain at the mercy of any eloquent and unscrupulous demagogue." -- S.

So they interrupted football at 2:15pm (up to that point every 15 minutes), and it hasn't gone back to it since.  :mad:

So now its all weather, all the time.  :rolleyes:
