Fuck PGW, my bill is up to a grand... how the fuck am I supposed to pay that?

Motherfuckers want me to freeze to death apparently. I'll be paying this thing off 'til November.

That and no health care, FUCK not having health care!

Were installing electric heat in our house (the shit is exspensive though) so were also putting a wood stove in our house to save money.

no health care? don't you have a kid on the way?

JawnDiablo - 2-28-2006 at 08:24 AM

the rates in philadelphia are through the roof.
not to mention they tacked on more fees to cover all them assholes in the hood who "just dont pay their bills"....and trying to get service is a joke.

BDx13 - 2-28-2006 at 08:39 AM

you guys live in houses, right?

JawnDiablo - 2-28-2006 at 09:02 AM

I'll be living in my car soon...

I live in the first floor apartment of a Victorian duplex... in the hood. Drafty as hell, and there's no insulation between the icebox basement and my hardwood floors.. which have some huge holes in them(relatively speaking). I keep space heaters around, but they just don't put out enough heat. It sucks, it's blisteringly hot in the summer and freezing cold in the winter.

I don't have health care for myself, my wife(thankfully) has for herself and I hope the kid will be able to be covered on that for a reasonable price. Health insurance is rediculous.

Wood stove is a smart move if ya can afford to have one put in, or buy and install yourself. Good call

We bought one off of someone in my boyfriends family for $50.
It's used but it's real nice. We're going to install it ourselves.

The place I rented the first time I went to college many years back had a wood stove. I loved that thing, it kept the whole house warm.

My grandmother has one, we used to gather 'round the woodstove at Christmas gatherings. So toasty.

I don't know if it's the most expensive but electric baseboard heat is up there a ways.

Okay, I have to resurrect this mother fucker....

Philly Gas Works is at it again. This time at an all new high. If it wasn't bad enough that their rates fucking outrageous... now I'm on a ten day notice to pay half of the total bill or they're going to shut my gas off. It's not like I haven't been paying on it... I've been doing what I can, about a hundred bucks a month. These mother fuckers want 700 out of me in 10 days or they're shutting off my gas. FUCK!

How the fuck did the country get to this fucking point? How can it be legal for a privately owned company to basically enslave you to pay for fucking utilities? Is it just me or aren't we entitled to warmth in the winter, fire to fucking cook our food with and warm water to bathe in... just by virtue of being alive and as a goddamned human right???????? I shouldn't be surprised I guess, since the day the constitution was drafted our esteemed "representatives" sold out their high ideals to economic concerns(slavery), it should come as no surprise that the inheritors of that tradition would go on to make every working American a wage slave and keep us under the boots of corporations to either get our money or to give it to them. To make it fucking worse, the government rips money out of my kid's mouth just because I work and I'm fucking penalized because of my profession. FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK FUCK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I want to hit someone, or shoot someone. I want to take to the fucking streets and take this shit back for the working class.... fuck the elite!

BLAAAH!
