I thought they already went up to $18 for the standard ad-free service, so I don't know. But anyway, we had it paused for about 6 months, and then we wanted to watch the new season of The Lincoln Lawyer. But that's over. And looking at our viewing history, we also watched The Beast In Me (good) and Ripple (not so good). So maybe it's time to pause it again.

What the hell?
Someone is getting greedy.

I go on a freaking rant in the beginning of this call and those are my current feelings about cord cutting.

Is the music for those by Vince Guaraldi?
I got the Happy Anniversary Charlie Brown CD back around 1990 or so. It was a good jazz disk. I used to listen to it all the time.

I won't link but there is a cute Snoopy Jazz video on the You Tube where Snoopy is riding his bike in the countryside. A regular bike not an E-bike

I received my price hike notice memo today on April Fool's Day. If I do one movie per week, it will be worth it plus the hot tv show and sporting event. I couldn't get back into WWE. I tried but not the same anymore. Maybe I'll go back to the commercial plan with Hulu. Maybe joining Disney they won't have such long commercial breaks.

I watched my first game of Apple Friday Night Baseball tonight. Braves vs D Backs. I love my Apple Friday Night Baseball. I don't care who's playing as long as I can catch an inning or two. The Braves hit back to back home runs in the 9th to win 2-0

Plus good preview of "Your Friends and Neighbors" 2nd season. So far I've seen 2 episodes of Season 1
