we dropped our cable this week and it feels like a boil being lanced - the relief!

so sick of shit like this and Storage wars and all the ultra ridiculous mind rotting Crap! even National Geographic has gone bezerk with their stupid Hillbilly hand fishing and whatever else Crap they have.

Got a Roku and tons of free channels and Netflix and are much happier now. And way cheaper too.
