I have no desire to subscribe to cable or satellite tv, but do strongly need to have broadband at home in Raleigh. That means that I won't get internet access through cable or satellite, so DSL is the only way. Which DSL service is good? There are the usual suspects (e.g., Time Warner, AT&T, Verizon, etc.), but there are probably ones less known that are cheaper and just as good. Recommendations anyone? Thanks.

I am moving to Ft. Hood but I want to live in Austin. I understand the commute and it doesn't bother me. I'm looking for a place that is pet friendly but not more than about 60 miles from Hood. Which area of Austin is best?

There are a lot of "armchair professionals" who read or hear about loan mods, put their own spin on it, then tout it as if it's the truth. When you are in a situation where you have to do a loan modification or a short sale, seek the help of a bona fide professional...not your buddy Ralph or your sister Suzie, unless they happen to be professionals experienced in loan modifications or short sales.

People will tell you that loan modifications are the answer...for about 4%...
