I haven't been on here since Monday morning.

I had a meeting to attend at noon Monday. When I returned home from our meeting, both my internet and cable TV were down. It took all these 3 days for Suddenlink to get here to check it out.

Now, yeah I rent in a trailer park, but this isn't a metro area.

Somebody had cut out the cabling, from the trailer to the pole and took it with them!

Out here in the boonies, I'd have never thought!

Ain't this some manure!!!

don't matter where you live, cable doesn't strip out to that much money unless you got an entire 2150 mile spool of it.

Maybe someone was just teed off at comcast?

The cable guy said they didn't get anything of value with that cable. He showed me the ends, they were snipped off.....

If they didn't get anything, they won't be back. Maybe I should label the power line as copper :)

I think those service drops for power are aluminum now. That RG6 wire for cable is only copper plated and that's on the good stuff. hand print-2_edited-5.jpg Frank...
