Hey...I need to vent about the cell phone “right.” Have you seen the commercial they run? There is one (a mom and daughter). The mom is far from elderly; both women are well coiffed; well fed; and well manicured (yes...acrylic are prominate). Now I DO understand that these are ‘actors’ however, the script is daughter wants security for her mama—so the government needs to give mama ‘security’ w/the celly.

Hello—if an ADULT child is worried about their mama not having a woireless phone—BUY her one!!! But mom on YOUR plan! Go and get a TracPhone and YOU pay to load minutes on!!!

And I type this on an aging Blackberry (Tour model—roller ball can’t be replaced—havta keep doing the ‘white paper thingy to make it work) I can’t afford to replace...because NO ONE pays my bills...

Rant off.

Checking in briefly here!
I know where you’re coming from PaMom!

I have a Verizon pay-as-you-go phone. I have been getting messages from Verizon that my balance is low and I need to add to it to remain active. Sorry, no can do at this time. At least I can keep my phone number until September. Taxes due, a wedding to prepare for and had to get new tires for the Jeep.

Should I whine to the government?
