I'm having to start a marathon of watching everything in my instant streaming list since I have less than 20 days before the price hike. We currently have the $9.99 DVD + Streaming package, and are planning to dump the streaming on the 31st.We would love to keep the streaming option. We really would. It's faster than having to wait for the movies to come in the mail. However, the limited number of movies available for streaming sucks, quite frankly, plus we constantly get the "You don't have enough bandwidth" message. It's not worth paying $7.99 a month for. I can understand that needing to raise the price a bit in order to expand the library and what not. But raising it this much is ridiculous. You might not think that it's much money. But for a lot of us out there it is...especially these days when the economy is bad. It wouldn't been so bad it you raised the $9.99 package to somewhere around $12. I do hope that you change your mind about the prices. Now I'm off to go watch 26 ...

Casey Anthony Walks
After a day and a half of deliberation, the jury in the Casey Anthony trial has reached their verdict. I've followed the case since the very beginning when Caylee was first reported missing. I have always felt that she was guilty. It may not have necessarily have been premeditated murder, but she did something that directly caused Caylee's death and then tried to hid it. The prosecution's case solidified that feeling, especially since most of the defenses' witnesses all ended up agreeing with the State. I figured she would have gotten the aggravated child abuse and aggravated manslaughter charges. But to walk away completly... It's times like this that I almost loose faith in our justice system. I don't even want to get into my thoughts on the trial since I would be here all day typing. Even though she was found guilty of lying, she will probably never serve since she has already been in jail for over three years. She'll be free to go home and live her 'beautiful life'. It ...
Aggressive Dogs Terrorizing Parts of Forney
Several months back, I posted about two extremely aggressive dogs that been terrorizing the neighborhoods surrounding my parents house in Forney. The dogs stalk up and down the streets, looking for anything small enough to attack. They killed one dog, a little terrier, right in front of it's owner, and broke through two screen doors to get at my parent's outdoor cat. The dogs are not afraid of people at all, and it's only a matter of time before they get a hold of a person. The owner of the dogs, who lives a few houses away from my parents, has been notified numerous times by both the county police and neighbors. He keeps the dogs a in pen topped with razor wire, so he knows that they are dangerous...yet does nothing when they do get out.Yesterday, my parents were in laying down when they heard a commotion outside. My dad got up to look, and saw the two dogs in the courtyard: one was attacking their cat while the other was attempting to break through the sliding glass door to go after ...
Horrid Mother-in-law E-mail is Worst Ever
You always hear horror stories about how crazy brides get before the wedding, or you can watch them on Bravo...or which ever channel Bride-Zillas airs on. But you never really hear much about mother-in-laws. Well, there's an e-mail floating around the web that is changing that.Last month, a woman sent her soon to be daughter-in-law a scathing e-mail about her 'lack of manners', eathing habbits, and 'cheap' parents. The bride-to-be was shocked, and she sent the message out to a few of her friends. One of these friends posted the letter on the web, wehre it is now causing a bit of a family fued. Here's an excerpt posted on Shine:from: Carolyn Bourne to: heidi withers subject: your lack of mannersHere are a few examples of your lack of manners:When you are a guest in another's house, you do not declare what you will and will not eat - unless you are positively allergic to something.You do not remark that you do not have enough food.You do not start before everyone else.You do not take ...

Tornadoes, Severe Weather in Texas
Last night was nerve wracking to say the least. I knew it was going to be bad after watching leading edge of the storm come in. There was already some rotation and a lot lightning. The clouds themselves looked almost like bubble wrap. I which now I had taken a picture because it's kind of hard to discribe.The first of the warnings came down at about 8:40 for Dallas. The storm was still about an hour away from us, but the sirens starting going off about 20 minutes later. Thankfully, Jason was safely home by then. We grabed blankes, pillows, a flashlight, and the weather raido, then headed into the hallway with Hannah in tow. We had several periods of heavy rain and rain, with some small hail tossed in. Surrounding areas got hail as big as grapefruits, which you definetly don't want to get hit with. The Rangers game got delayed twice. I watched on the news as they hearded fans into the dugouts as tornado sirens went off there as well.Our tornado sires went off constantly until ...
