I prefer landline for a lot of reasons. I had a cell phone but no landline phone for a while. I paide $60 a month for my cellphone could call anywhere in USA and Mexico for that price each month with no extra charges. This was ok for a while as I had cable internet at the time. But th ecable bill was close to 100 a month so I went exploring. I had been paying out 160 a month for cell phone an cable for internet... With Verizon freedom package I would pay 40 a month to call anywhere in the USA and Peurto Rico (don't know anyone there) and then pay 15 a month for my internet. We don't need cable tv as we dont watch cable tv and onlly watch VHS and DVD videos. So I would only pay a total of 70 a month for phone and internet (taxes included) if I switched to verizon and let the cell phone go. Beat paying 160 a month. Advantages to cell phone...being able to take them everywhere with you (if you travel a lot they are great for that purpose) the disadvantage of that is everyone calling you EVERYWHERE you go and ALL the time and God forbidyou turn your phone off then you get heck for that because they could not reach you and did not understand why you had a CELL phone if you were not going to have it on to answer it..... The only advantage I found of the cell phone was having it with me wherever I went...however, i hardly go anywhere. I'm at home most of the time, work from home etc ....and so most of my calls were when I was home... I saved money by ditching hte cell phone and fouind out after ditching it that I can now take my child out or just go to the store myself in PEACE...Im' not interrupted when Im talking to the cashier about my purchases by a phone ringing....I'm not interrupted while driving down the road by the ring of the phone...I dont have the stress of feeling I have to ansewr the phone all the time cuz its ringing wherever I go... And best of all I dont have that ringing sound in my ears anymore cuz the house phone fo rsome reasons does not ring as much as the cell phone did...GO FIGURE...all of a sudden since I ditched the cell phone nobody has a reason to call me...nobody has anything they need from me...and it hardly ever rings now and my life is so much more peaceful and so much less stress.... I will NEVER have a cell phone again. If I ever decide to take a long trip (for me a long trip is to a town 1/2 hour away) but if I ever decide to go further than that I can get one of those ones you buy minute cards for and use it for breakdown on road or something...but to go out to dinner with a friend or to chruch or to the dr or to the store or just out to get away for a day and constnatly have to make sure I have the phone with me or having to answer it when someone calls or...well you get the point... Now when I leave the house all I have to remember is purse and keys...no more asking...WHERES THE PHONE??? blu ice

AS THE WORLD TURNS, being one of THE YOUNG AND RESTLESS, I spent THE DAYS OF OUR LIVES in a SEARCH FOR TOMORROW that brought me to THE EDGE OF NIGHT. I was headed for ANOTHER WORLD. After winding up in GENERAL HOSPITAL and being cared for by THE DOCTORS, Jesus Christ, THE GUIDING LIGHT, broke through my SECRET STORM. Lovingly He said, "I have rescued you from FALCON CREST: Now share in My DYNASTY, and be one of ALL MY CHILDREN . . . and I will give you ONE LIFE TO LIVE."

THE PIT A man fell into a pit and couldn't get himself out. A SUBJECTIVE person came along and said: "I feel for you, down there." An OBJECTIVE person came along and said: "It's logical that someone would fall down there." A PHARISEE said: "Only bad people fall into a pit." A MATHEMATICIAN calculated how he fell into the pit. A NEWS REPORTER wanted the exclusive story on his pit. A FUNDAMENTALIST said: "You deserve your pit." An I.R.S. man asked if he was paying taxes on the pit. A SELF-PITYING person said: "You haen't seen anything until you've seen MY Pit!" A CHARISMATIC said: "Just confess that you're not in a pit." An OPTIMIST said: "Things could be worse." A PESSIMIST said: "Things will get worse!" JESUS, seeing the man, took him by the hand and LIFTED HIM OUT of the pit. --Source Unknown
