Re: OTQ

Yeah, we get the Mormies, too; clean-cut, airbrushed kid--lots of them--at least enough to make me think my neighborhood is a certified alternative to Iraq.

Anybody else noticed this? We've had a big increase in door-to-door
salesmen--from zero 6 months ago to two-three a day now. We've also had
four Verizon salesmen in the last 5 day [not counting Sunday, of
course] peddling their new FiOS [fiber-optic system] internet/cable
channel/long distance hookup service. Since they tore up most of the
front yards around here when they installed the fiber-optic cable,
you'd think they would be smart enough to let the neighborhood ire
quell before bragging about what they did. But since their cable
competitor here is Comcast, it's become a tussle between dumb and
dumber.
