Sorry.

Comcast was being difficult yesterday and didn't get to check the internet before work.

Hope you are well.

My choices are Verizon DSL or Xfinity

i feel like i'm in a voting booth trying to pick which of the two terrible choices won't bite me in the ass after the current deal ends

Yup, they've got a monopoly on the area because they lobby to keep their infrastructure the only option to use around here. It doesn't matter that they're terrible because there's no other option.

Companies like T-Mobile get around that by using hotspots and cell towers but that's only gonna work if there's land available to compete with!

it still amazes me a basic internet connection isn't a right.

Could be worse if that merger with AT&T,Comcast and Time Warner took place.
