Rates are one thing. This is them charging people for electric that isn't even being used.

Because they released a statement from an NHL organization because some shitty kid did a shitty thing? Not saying to fine him just cuz. He used his position to try and give it weight and made himself, the org, and the NHL look like dumbasses. It was unrelated to the flyers and should've stayed that way.

Let’s hold celebrating until we see the punishment. Stealing in a government? Slap on the wrist

No issues here in Shindle, PA. No outages in two years and I get the service I signed up for. 100 download.

i have had atlantic bb/breezeline for many years and it's not terrible. most of the issues we have had were because of weather, accidents, or fires.

There are a couple of things to consider here.

If VA requires the signature to be notarized then it will be required when you register it in PA. If not then only the signature is required.

Make sure you get a bill of sale from the previous owner because they will collect sales tax when you register it.

You need to get your PA drivers license before registering your vehicles.

We have a lot of stupid laws here.

Most of North America will get a partial eclipse.

I will say, it totally depends on the mood of the ranger. Me and some friends went camping, got 2 sites off-peak and our ranger just decided to be a grump. I don't know if he was bored or just on a power trip. We hadn't even been there 3 hours before he came around and was counting people.

My family always went with 5 kids + 2 adults, and usually a friend or two. I didn't even know there was a limit.

You should be okay, but they'll definitely enforce the number of vehicles allowed at a camp site. Use the overflow lots.

I am sure your mentor John DuPont taught you to believe that. Bless

Wikipedia is a conduit to cite other sources.

They must not have encyclopedias in Delco...

Maybe you were like that but a lot aren’t. I’ve been I. A group of adults sitting quietly around a campfire and had rangers sneak up and start bugging us about what was in our solo cups.

They are pretty damn strict about a lot of things. Frankly camping at pa state parks is substantially worse than it would otherwise be because of the stupid rules and overly strict rangers.

Has Atlantic Broadband for years. When we switched from DSL I bought a router and modem from the approved list instead of renting from the company. Tech showed up on a day I couldn't be there so a less tech savvy member of the household handled it. Tech went to install new modem, opened the box then realized modem wouldn't work since we went VOIP for landline. So now I had an "open box" modem that I they wouldn't let me use nor could I return. Price per month 50 Mbps down + landline, was $75 for first year, $120 for year two and then $159 for anything beyond that. Steep but service rarely went down.

About year 2.5 Atlantic Broadband gets bought out by Breezeline. Start getting charged for paper statement ($1, 4 months in $2). Base charge hiked up to $178 per month. Quality of service is less as the network drops out 2-3 times a week. Most times it's quick (under 5 mins). Speed is slower most of the time down to 40-45 Mbps.

Called and dropped the landline and magically all the rates have changed. I'm now paying $45 for 100 Mbps ( best I've seen is 75) for 3 months then the price hikes to $90.

I've looked into T-Mobile ( only metered plan, no unlimited data yet) a local wireless ( no line of sight to their towers) and Comcast isn't available here yet. Constantly getting spammed on streaming for Comcast, T-Mobile and Breezeline. I'd jump ship in a hot minute if there was anything else to go to.

I've lived in Erie all my life and I can almost guarantee it will be cloudy and possibly snowing that day. Either way, it's very exciting and we are expecting a lot of visitors!

Yes. Partial

Just to be safe we'd keep it in the cooler and drink in plain cups. If you don't attract attention, no one will know.

I keep getting bombarded with their advertising on my streaming video sources..... Call them up and they don't serve Berks & have no plans to. So why are they targeting me for their ads? So a little sus imho.

(Depressed resignation) Throw it on the "Not a drag queen" pile.

It's so horrible that it manages to double loop from awful to darkly funny back to pitch black awful that as the right wing continues to try to paint queer and trans people as threats to children we have a near never ending stream of "Faith leaders" and "Community pillars" who are sexually assaulting children. I don't get what's so hard to grasp that if someone wants to prey on kids they aren't going to put on a wig corset and falsies but they are going to pick a position where they have access to and can earn the trust of the child.

Not sure why the formatting went wonky...

They've already technically ended the "lifetime" program and reduced the amount of pub club benefits. They just gave prior members their 2023 "subscription" for free, as long as they've patronized the establishment in 2022. Everybody else with a pub club card has apparently been stricken from the rolls. Here's their wording from an email:

OTTO'S:

Many of you have had friends and relatives who have asked “when will you begin taking new members again?” Well, we are pleased to announce that beginning January 2, 2023 memberships will be available to “The New Pub Club”. Description of the membership is attached.

 All memberships will renew on an annual basis and will include some new and revised benefits each year.  Some of the adjustments have been made based on requests and comments from current members, others out of operational necessity. For current members who have visited Otto’s in the past 12 months, there will be NO fee for 2023.  Annual fees for memberships will renew in January of each year regardless of the date of original membership purchase.

They're half way there! At least they've increased menu prices!
