Another Sign of Spring

I got my Directv bill in the mail yesterday and included amidst the Programming, Leased Receiver Fees, Sales Tax, North Carolina Video Services Tax (I have no clue what THAT is. Just another way this state has come up with to tax us to death) and my "Refer a Friend" discount was the following:

"IMPORTANT RENEWAL NOTICE:

You are all set to enjoy another exciting year of MLB EXTRA INNINGS. We are renewing you at the lowest price of 6 payments of $33.99/month. Look for the first charge to appear on an upcoming bill."

I've never been as happy about forking over close to $200 dollars over the next 6 months as I am right now.

Sweet Holy Moses, Opening Day is almost here.
