I Need to Know I

I Need to Know
I you have seen any TV in the last 5 years or so, you know that 1-800-CALL-ATT
and 1-800-COLLECT have spent a fortune advertising on every possible show with
annoying, washed up "personalities" trying to get you to place all your collect
calls with them, and "Save a buck or two." But, really, who's out there making
all these collect calls? I have received one and made one in whole life and both
where over 7 years ago. (I paid for the one I received, and let me tell you,
when they say save a buck or two, they mean your bill will be $18 instead of
$20.) Long distance calls cost less and less all the time, most people have a
calling card or could easily get one at the convenience store beside the pay
phone they're using, or just use a cell phone. Cell phones just aren't that hard
to find, and like long distance, more people have more minutes, including long
distance, for less money. Even Aaron Tripp has a cell phone! Anyway, what I want
to know is out of all the people who read this blog, how many of you have
actually made or received a collect call in the past five years?
