The Revolving Door: Quick hellos

[Roland Deschain]

Wow. I'm pretty shocked. Phone companies are usually notorious for bad and slow service. Woohoo!

[Opsa]

What's even more surprising is that they actually deducted those days we missed from our bill. Am I dreaming?

[Roland Deschain]

*gently caresses Opsa before deciding to just slap* :evilgrin:

I don't know, but did that work?

[Sibling Zono (anon1mat0)]

Am I dreaming?

Nope, they're scared to death of VOIP (services like vonage that work over the internet) because it's drastically cheaper and far more convenient.

[Opsa]

Ah, I loiks it when cold cruel reality works in our favor!

_{Where'd I get this bruise, though?}

[Aggie]

Probably scared of mobile, too.  

We have ridiculous mobile rates up here, but even at those prices it's just as cheap to have a cell phone as a land line, with all services thrown in.  Ma's home phone beats my cell slightly due to the fact that she's got unlimited long distance to the US, but I figure unlimited text to the world (plus mobile) trumps that. Of course, there are still lots of dead spots for cell coverage (~95% of the province), so those living out in the sticks are still better off with land lines or satellite phones.

.............and UK finally goes 4G, but only for two cell phone companies and limited cities.

HellooOoooOoo! 

Hi!

These doors sure revolves fast...   

It's nice to be back.

I'll to pop in on a bit more regular and even write some... I'm usually lurking in the shadows nowadays.

See you around!

[pieces o nine]

Good to see you back - hope you can post more and lurk less... 

[Griffin NoName]

Great to see you D.

We need a Lurker Alert

[Darlica]

Lurker alert...
Isn't that the little box at the bottom of the page that tells you who is logged in?

[Griffin NoName]

Um Yes but I never look at it, I need a big flashing neon sign, my attention span is almost zero.

[Darlica]

Ah! something like this?

Darlica is lurking again!

[Griffin NoName]

yes exactly like that

[Opsa]

Maybe an audio cue would help too, something along the lines of a ghost moaning and shaking chains.

Hey- my darling, cunning, fantastical phone system has been on and off for the past week, wreaking havoc with my communications. They are supposed to fix it (again) today. Right now I have internet connection, but no phone. Go figger.

I am happy to see Darlica!
