This is not funny. This... this is a morality tale about the evils of sake.

Danger is my middle name, only I spell it R. u. t. h. - Tina Belcher.

I don't use it much, I just have in case of emergencies.

I've seen commercials for Virgin. Does your boss like his service, Heather?

Art Crawl!!!

TAR: WTF? What did the Mother/Son team do to run out of money, halfway through the leg ?

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

I was on some prepaid phone a few years ago. It was ungodly expensive unless you bought $100 at a time. And then if you didn't buy any time for 45 days, you'd loose all the time you'd already bought.

Guess what happened to me twice?

eta: Virgin sounds cool. Any company that can send a jet around the world nonstop unrefueled with only one crew member has to have a good cellular system.

I've seen commercials for Virgin.

I absolutely adored their ad campaign this last holiday season, with their ghetto-fabulous low-budget ads singing this wonderful, slightly-off-key carol to winter holiday inclusivness.

How can you not love a campaign that includes the musical exchange -

Blonde: "I'm a Scientologist"

Older Guy: "Well that's kind of a religion."

Virgin only requires you to put money on the phone every ninety days. And the rates are fixed.

Ooh, that's cool. I've been thinking of buying a prepaid phone.

What are their rates? he-who-is-too-lazy-to-look-it-up asks....

Virgin is sounding better all the time.

Any ideas on cheap isp? Right now I'm on Earthlink dial-up. has anyone ever used Net.zero or Juno?

Or even scroll back two five posts...

You can add cash in, like, $20 amounts, and the first ten minutes of any given day are a quarter. They're a dime a piece after that, so the longer you talk, the more the overall average goes down.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."

Does your boss like his service, Heather?

He didn't like the first one, but is happy with T-mobile after some initial kinks. The virgin sounds about like his plan.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

You can also set it up to automatically put $20 on your credit card every ninety days just to make sure you don't screw it up.
