Can you believe it?

Snopes.com verifies that it is true!

I'm clipping this post, so I'll not forget it.

I have programmed this number into my cell phone and used them a couple of times. It's a good deal - you don't even get an ad all of the time.

Supply suggestions (getting depressed)?
Q
Comments (15)
I think your fears are a little unfounded. Sure, groceries donÂt always sell the healthiest veggies (unless theyÂre organic groceries, and even then), but itÂs not as if theyÂre deadly poison shops. Anyway, if youÂre just starting out, start simple. Get yourself a small plot, simple fertilizer, and cheap tools. See if itÂs right for you. You donÂt need to spend money getting expensive things if you end up quitting or throwing out your back taking hoe to soil. And if youÂre intent on saving up, have you thought of switching to free or low-rate services for phones? Comcast and other carriers now offer low-cost combinations of phone, net and tv, and 1800-Free-411 is a free directory assistance service. With that you can pretty much trawl all you need without worrying about the charges.

You can make a SCRATCH folder in Outlook express which will be in the same place as the inbox, sent, etc. click on view and then click on GO TO FOLDER. At the top of the drop down box click at the top to unexpand the list then at the right you should see NEW FOLDER. Click on this and then enter a name for the folder. Usa SCRATCH if you want to. Go back to the inbox and then when you want to MOVE or COPY an email to the SCRATCH folder right click on the email title and them choose move or copy. when you choose the SCRATCH folder name and click OK it will be transferred to that folder. This allows you to SAVE emails if this is what you waht to do. HTH John

Frustrated! Handling Mom's AT&T. Rant/Vent/ in Florida
Q
Comments (14)
Mom moved to senior community last August. Set her up with AT&T phone service. I'm assuming you set it up, and then that your name, and only your name is on the account. If that is the case, they cannot legally be changing the service in any way without it being a request from you. My guess, is that if you choose for her to NOT have a long distance carrier at all, that she will also NOT be able to make any directory assistance calls either. There is no extra charge to not have a carrier, and I think may even be about $5 less as a result. She could still call free directory assistance 1 800-free-411 (1 800-373-3411). If she had long distance calls to be made, they could be made with a calling card (Dollar Store or about anyplace). The call initially is made to an 800 #, and then the card number is keyed in, and then the phone number. That should solve everything, and there not be any more unexpected charges, once you get it set back up on 'Basic Service', and have them note that there are to be no changes unless they are authorized by you. Sometimes employees or other residents will take sometimes take advantage of using the resident's phones for their own personal use, when it is convenient. Sue

Cell phone directory?
Q
Comments (9)
Well, if it is to be found anywhere it would be by dialing 411, according to the article linked below. The cell phone user would have had to opted to have their cell number listed, in order for 411 to have it available. I doubt if many cell users would really want their number listed. From the link below: One day after a hearing on the Wireless 411 Privacy Act, the committee approved the bill, which would prohibit wireless carriers from including subscribers' phone numbers in published directories without their consent. Six of the seven largest wireless carriers are moving forward with a plan to compile a wireless number directory. Sponsors of the bill, including Senator Barbara Boxer (D-California), argued this week that wireless phone customers expect their numbers to be private, and the bill would safeguard customers against unscrupulous business practices. Might you know a relative of theirs or a mutual friend of theirs that could get in touch with them and ask that they call you? Do you know what town they are in? Possibly you could get a number via 411, if they have a land line, even if you don't have the exact street address. Here is a link that might be useful: Wireless Privacy Bills

Or you could just go to one of the many websites like 411.com or switchboard.com that provide free directory assistance. They also do reverse lookups.

Thanks Jose,

I've got your wonderful clipped. I knew there were sites that did reverse lookups but didn't know what they were.

Whitepages.com and other web resources are great and I use them all of the time - at home. However, when you are on the road and don't have web access or an old fashion phone book, and you need to get a phone number, directory assistance is great. If its free, even better. Thanks for the tip.

I've been using 1 800-FREE411 since you posted it. Saving the charge for assistance is worth having to listen to the annoying (short) ads.

I don't even find the ads annoying. I've actually taken advantage of a few. To get free DS, it's worth every second. Every since my dh and I got rid of our landline we've cursed our provider for forcing us to decide which we needed more: the number or the dollar.
Free411 is awesome, if I might steal a phrase from my son. Get all your friends to use them so they'll be sure to stay in business.
