Well, I wave my white flag. Here I sit waiting for the latest installment of HBO’s Game of Thrones (GoT). I’m looking forward to watching the great clockwork map spin by and hearing the timber of the cello as the introduction begins and leads me into Westeros.

USF fees change and there are states where those changes must be reflected in your tariffs.
