you think you have it bad?

in dahlonega (really anyone north of forsyth county) tv, phone, and the internet are all controlled by one company. it cost the same for me to call my parents in cumming as it does to call my brother in valdosta. the slow ass dsl line i have cost more than my parents cable internet, cable tv and phone service put together. the connection is so bad that i have to wait for picture to load on IA. the fucked up part is you have to have a phone line to have dsl, and if you have a phone line you have to have a long distance plan. i dont even have a friggin house phone, but i've got a long distance plan.

no for the tv... alltel offers about 50 channels with their basic package, none of which i watch, ever. movie channels can be added at $12 a pop per month. so the math adds up to 50 regular channels (that all suck) and 4 movie channels (hbo, showtime, the movie channel, and cinemax) for over $100 a month. i've got direct tv premium package and it comes out to about $94 a month. i've got more movie channels than they offer regular channels.

sorry to bitch but alltel is the suck.
