Lol. Some folks you just can't help, dude.

I HIGHLY recommend the "Sins of a Solar Empire" series. REALLY good stuff, from an excellent developer.

I got to "Playing duck hunt on your old nintendo makes you more of an athlete than an olympic archer" before I decided that reading the rest of that comparo would make me less intelligent. On topic, I am FOR pole dancing in the Olympics.

You have PM, dude.

Autotragic.

AEP Retail and AEP Ohio are seperate companies. One bottom line is not tied to the other. The government has GUARANTEED that AEP will make 10% profit each year, so you should not be concerned about their profit margins. This IS NOT how a free market economy works, and pretending that it is is folly.

:funny: Stop it, before you hurt yourself, son.

You aren't fooling anyone by buying an SUV, bro.

OK, this is how retail electricity works, peeps. There are three parts to your service; Generation, Transimssion, and Distribution. A retail supplier is bidding on the Generation and Transmission component of your bill (Here in AEP territory, at least). The Distribution will ALWAYS be charged by AEP, as they own the lines to your home. On your AEP bill, there will be a little note that says something like "An alternative supplier would have to offer you a rate better than 8.7 cents per kWh to make it worth your while to switch". If anyone is offering a better rate, I would take it. In fact, I did. I am personally with FES, and to my knowledge (which is extensive in this area) that is the best offer for us folks in central Ohio. (Other offers include Border Energy and AEP Retail) If you bill does not have the little blurb telling you what you are paying, here is how to figure it out. Pull out your bill and a calculator. Add the amount charged for your Generation service to the amount paid for your transmission service. Now find the usage for the past month. It will be in that little grid they show you right below the cost breakdown. It will say something like "Metered usage 1,200 KWH". Divide the previous number by that number. You will get a number that reads like this; "0.08965..." Read that as "Eight point nine cents per kWh". In the end, there isn't any reason to stay with you utility. They are guaranteed a certain rate of return by the government. Unless you want YOUR rates to help fund that, you should be looking to switch. If you are sick of AEP, stop giving them your money.

PUCO governs that water bill as well, team. And the Natural Gas...and the dump.... It is common knowledge around the country that AEP Ohio's infrastructure is behind the times. The pressure to update it is not ENTIRLY internal. For the record, every other utility that had to deal with this is doing the same thing, so AEP is not alone in it's douchebaggery.

I would have to fight, I think. If I knew that I was going to get whacked like that, especially on camera, I would have to just lose it, go out fighting. I mean, I would at lest be trying to fuck up their video. I dunno man, I don't think I could just sit there and take it, unless they drugged the shit out of me or knocked me out or something. I'm not especially brave, but what does a man who knows he is dead already have to lose?

This has potential.

When we find him, I say we send him to Mexico....

...When, what to my wondering eyes should appear, but a miniature sleigh, and... ...with a little old driver, so lively and quick, I knew in a moment it must be St. Nick. Lol, that ride even looks a bit like a sled. Did he bring you all presents and ask if you wanted to sit on his lap?

In the champoogne room?

Shit, it's even good at running into other cars and keeping it's occupants alive!

Hells yeah, I loved that show. Vaya con Dios, Ernesto.

Oh, the ironing!

I hear you, and I get where you are coming from, but I have to be honest, this reminds me of some of the best times in Boxing. Back when the dudes would talk shit to one another. I'm all for the way of the honorable warrior, but dammit, we need a bad guy, and some personality in these fights. Thats why I dig it.

Tito is married to Jenna Jameson. You would have to be a confident motherfucker to walk down that road.

Why don't you quit frontin' and just get two womens bikes?

Jigga please. I have nice things at my house, which means the mostly unwashed masses of CR are unwelcome, and would likely get shot, given the decrepit appearance you seem so intent on maintaining. I would think I was being lynched. Looks like it's Roosters for me.

More to the point, where is everyone watching this?
