    See ya later 20th century!

    I've finally gotten sick of paying $30/month for a land-line that I never use. I just found out that my cell phone company can take over that number and replace my existing cell number with it, all for free.

    Land Line: let's see ...
    -It cost me $30/month at an average of $2/call.
    -No Caller ID
    -No voice mail
    -No call waiting
    -It's been down for the last 7 days and the phone company wants to charge me to come out - depending on where the decide the problem was.


    It's so nice when life presents easy decisions.

    -Clay

    You may not believe this, but I don't know anybody under the age of 40 who has a landline in their home anymore... seriously.

    I was talking about this with Cheese over breakfast the other day and we couldn't think of a single person.
    Hasta,
