So my monthly bills aren't that much. I've had a lot of stuff to pay off (medical bills), but now I'm in the clear.

$99 for cable+internet!?!? ouch!

325 take home every two weeks plus I"m a full time compE student. Life sucks big nuts which is why I'm doing homework on a saturday night. My roomates are out partying but they are econ and history majors. I'm hoping my choice now will pay off later. I so want to go drinking though. Damn Minix.

Strange, the quotes got mixed up. That was me that posted that.

Anyway, yeah it's about $99.

$49.50/mo for internet
$49.50/mo for extended basic digital cable

Insight Communications. It's 3Mb/77Kb cable. I might have the numbers off, but they add up to $99.

do you have any other providers in your area? threaten to cancel internet cable and switch to DSL.

We have painfully expensive (like $300/mo) DSL.

I'm moving in 2 weeks anyway, and I'm not planning on getting internet access there, so it's no big deal.
