What an absolutely divine idea. It's one I had the second time they called.

My cheap-ass POS fone does not have the luxury of call blocking.

But then again, it was $4.95, and it wasn't even on sale, so...

Their ringtone is a single, very quiet beepboop, never hear it.

I admit, a $4.95 phone IS a good deal.

Yeah, just don't expect much.

Also, it's a flip fone.

I like seeing ppls' reaction to me unfolding my fone.

When we all had flip phones (not that long ago) we could block numbers by accessing our accounts online using a computer. is that an option with your service?

My LG X Venture smartphone (Android) usually sits at home while my Samsung Sync flip phone goes everywhere with me.

I've mentioned it before: check out the link in my previous post.

BTW, just out of curiosity, is your flip phone number entered on the National Do Not Call Registry and did you report the phone number that you saved?

Hah! No, but it rings like one! I've got the old fashioned bell-ringing ringtone as default.

The number's been noted on several websites that do that sort of thing. I'm sure it's already been reported. It's a spoofed number, anyway.

Probably not. I use Trac-Fone. Notoriously awful customer service. I mean, really bad.

Thanks for that heads up, though. I will look into that.

It's not a complete failure. No one from the National Do Not Call Registry has called me.

I rarely get junk calls on my cellphone and never on my landline (yes I still have one! ....but I use Vonage) DNC registry works for me, I think.

Hahahahahahahahahahahaha...but, then again I may, or may not have a helluva buzz. I can't tell.

And I do not, with 100% certainty, know where GrandCherokeeOne is atm.

I'm reasonably sure, but not 100%.

Worse problems to have.

I've upped my game.

I used the voice recorder to record about a half-second of near-silence. I now use that recording for that ringtone.

I hear nothing.

I appreciate that man. Thank you.

I woke up feeling this way, it was unpleasant. I found out later this day that my Uncle G died that night. He's my favorite Uncle, we had a great relationship, I loved him very much. He..

listen. I find myself stumbling over the language. shifting to the past tense each time is like another little stab.

He lived in Florida. I am not going to be able to make it to the service.

It's ok. We talked frequently and we ended every call with I love you. I know he loved me. I know he knew I loved him. That part's not in question. The process, I mean the sequence of events .. why is this even something I'm thinking about? It was a surprise. He wasn't that old "just" 70.

I don't know.


Kiss and love your family. Don't delay.
