    NCoxSTL AAACK!

    Our setup is similar, though I don't use Hulu. Cable internet for the pipeline. We have Amazon Fire Stick and I'm a Prime member, so that opens up their entire Prime library. I pay for Netflix, which Jennifer watches almost exclusively, and I pay for HBO and Starz Channels through Prime. Cheaper that way. I also have the CBS All Access Channel on Prime. I know there's a way of getting PBS through the Fire Stick but just haven't done it yet. It combines their app with a membership with the local PBS station.

    Basically we can watch any and/or all of those options on the TV or on our laptops, phones, tablets, etc. Cost for the Netflix/HBO/Starz/CBS is a little under $50 per month. No charge for the Fire Stick. Amazon Prime is $120 a year now I think? So, basically $10 per month. So, cost of video service - $60 give or take. If you add in the internet bill it takes it to $140 a month. However, I don't count internet as a cost of the video because we rely on it for everything. Shopping, my training, my job now as everything I do is internet based. (Giving me a tax deduction in the process).

    Lots of different way to cut the cord and get what you want, but there's another lineup to give you a broader idea.

    Nice shave, that brush looks so good, the handle is nice with the knot so perfect.
    Wonderful picture Gary!

    Thanks Neal. This is very helpful. It appears we've got a lot of options to consider.

    Monday evening April 1 - Rule shave #19

    Delta Echo refurbished Gillette Fatboy on 4 / Rapira Swedish Supersteel (4)
    Simpsons CH2 Chubby Synthetic Bristles brush
    MWF/Kent in beechwood tub
    Alum and Polar Ice Booster splash
    IMG_20190304_100605.jpg

    The theme of tonight's shave seemed to be "Forget", as in I forgot it was Menthol Monday, forgot to switch my Rapira Swedish Supersteel blade out after 3 shaves, and then forgot to use the Alum at the end of the shave. Regardless, everything I remembered to use worked well and it was a good shave. Eleven left to go in this 30-shave Rule...

    So the Prime Directive is suspended. Making contact with Newbies is Go!
    The Cartel seems happy with current numbers, yet wants to up the count. I enjoy jumping inexperienced shavers into the Crew. Viva la revolution.

    Is the handle aluminum? An actual trailer hitch ball?

    Oh, you've got the RAD Terry. I feel better when I can justify my excesses by comparing my own to guys in lab coats.

    I can't get the 2nd grade instructor to include plasma when teaching the states of matter. Have to ease the newer 30DC into multidimensional storage solutions gently. Adam @Drygulch and his score keeping on used up soaps is a primer on 4-D product rotation. The Enablers are subtly/ feverishly sharing hardware & software options. All's right in the world! :cool:
