OT: power companies getting ready for storm season

[frenchie]

looked out in back yard this morning and found back yard full of branches, power company head down alley trimmin trees back away from power lines and there not being picky there cuttin them back real far. This is awesome my tree needed trimming real bad and now don't have to worry about it near my power lines or over my shed.

As high as our bills have gone up, they need to get over hear and start on mine. I can't reach the 40 foot branches that are hanging over my lines.

yeah that will suck someone has to pay this company going around trimmin trees. But it is better than having one land on my powerlines and going 5 days without power in 96 degree temperature loosing all my food in fridge and tons more money in fish and coral like i did during last summers storms.

if it goes to high i'll have to cut back on satelite programming and slower internet speed and few other odds and ends i don't really need. its a bummer when goes up and everything else does to.
