Hooked Up
R. Alex Whitlock
I got a new cell phone. It seems that cell phones aren't quite the buyer's market here that they are in Houston. There are only two national competitors here (U.S. Cellular and AT&T) that I ran across. There's also a local cell phone company that has unlimited local minutes but no LD minutes. Very weird.
I went with AT&T, where I got 800 anytime minutes, 1500 off-peak minutes, and I can call nationally. It cost me about $35/mo, which beat the competition. But I had to buy a cell phone! Gasp! I can't remember the last time one didn't come free with a year contract.
In any case, now that I'm employed I can afford a cell phone, which will help me find a better job.
Ahhh, irony.

Comment spam is an ongoing problems that we're trying to address. Previously we required people to create accounts and log in. I am thankful to say that is no longer the case. We're giving Captcha another try and are playing around with a text-based Q&A variant of Captcha. So bear with us as we try to figure out how to best get a handle ont he problem. Please note that any comment on a post more than 30 days old will go into the moderation queue, where I will get to it when I can which could be once a week.
