48 more days until I tell AT&T to stuff it.

June 5 is the day Google Fiber will be connecting in my neighborhood.
My new AT&T bill just increased the cost of my DSL by another $3 and change.

They just raised my rate for (supposedly) 3Mbps. Last night it was 1.4, this morning (at 6:00 AM) it was 3.4, and at 11:00 AM it was .45.

Then they had the gall to robo call me to pay my bill, which I had done last week.
