to do list

locate telephone
[somewhere in house]

hook up and charge
said telephone
[its a cordless]

use said telephone
to call cell phone
to get telephone number
from cell phones caller id

use said telephone
to gather information about
international long distance services

beat head against wall
to determine the pros and cons
of each service

randomly pick a service
using a variety of irrelevant criteria

use said telephone
to sign up for what will end up being
the least reliable and most expensive
long distance service
because I am unable to remember or care
what are the various rules
that I am supposed to follow
in order to avoid getting molested

for the life of me
I can not imagine
why I feel like procrastinating on this
or signing up for random root canals
instead

but I wont
cause
its my turn

I am never one
to be remiss
on keeping my end
of the deal

I spend 25+ hours a month on the phone to the UK, so I spent weeks researching international calling plans. I ended up signing up for the Boomerang international callback service from Americom (http://www.americom.com/).

It's designed to let people call you from outside the US and get good rates, but you can use a feature they call 'follow me around' access point and use it like a calling card. Monthly billing, ~4 cents a minute to the UK w/o any fees. The only drawback is that if you use it to call mobile phones there is an annoying delay (In fact, the only phone card I've ever found that can reliably call mobile phones internationally is one called 'The premier prepaid phone card', and even then, it's 20+ cents a minute).

If you have any questions, feel free to ask.. and if you find anything better, be sure to let me know. :)
