(The icon is completely gratuitous. Do you know how many screenshots I had to view to get a halfway decent one with George and Annie that I could make into a 100x100 square? Hundreds! Well, scores. I really wanted one from 1.05, but their faces were too far apart in the scene I wanted--plus they both had really odd looks on their faces in most of them.)
ahem I do have a point, and it's totally unrelated to Being Human (except that I see people abbreviating that BH, and I'm already confused, because BH is Brilliant Husband). So my BH called Verizon today about an extra charge, and, while he was on the line, the service rep said, "Did you know that your cable, phone, and Internet are all being billed à la carte? We can combine those, save you money, and probably improve your Internet speed a little."
BH is very pleased. We're going to save about $150/year. I guess I'm a pessimist, glass-half-full kind of girl, because I'm thinking "We paid $300 we shouldn't have!" Mostly, we've been happy with Verizon. I just wish someone had noticed this earlier.
The moral of the story: if you get more than one service from the same provider, check and make sure you aren't paying more than you should. You'll thank me later (oh, wait--that's another show).

Actually sounds like Rafael! (I think we along with all the other little peoples in the world don't like the humungous payouts these people get :()
