A cable guy just offered to make my phone bill "A lot less"
also offered a $10/month cable plan. Was this guy trying to get me to get illegal cable?

2. Well. I did answer the door in my underwear
But I am a man. Has society become so tolerant that cable men go door to door soliciting gay sex?

4. Um yeah!
It happens in SF and West Hollywood ALLLLL the time. I know.

It just got to the point that I'd open the door in jock strap, holding condoms and lube.

8. And then, I'm sure, the cute new next door neighbor happens to come over
to ask for a phonebook and ends up joining in, as does the butch latino pool man and the latino gardener

5. He Was Trying to Sell Voice over IP
I work for the local phone company in Maryland, and believe me, it's serious competition. VoIP voice quality used to be substandard but has improved.

What the prices are I don't know, but it's probably less than the local telco. Get them to give you some price points.

7. My sister recently switched to a "cable phone"
I know that's probably not the proper term but that's what it is. So far, it seems to be working for her very well.
