Thank you Al Gore, Democrats and Rural Electrification.
So, I have Sage as my land line phone service. The monthly nut is $43.and change. At the grocery store the other day, I look on the back of the receipt and find Sage is offering a really outstanding deal. Unlimited local use, 300 anytime long distance minutes, call waiting, forwarding, Caller ID etc.
I call Sage and ask if I can get their better deal even if I'm already a customer. Sure says the nice lady. She says I'm on one of their older plans and she'd be able to upgrade me, price wise, as I already have all the goodies the new plan has.
My savings? $2.00! $2.00?? Yep!! There is $19.00 a month in taxes on my phone bill. State, Federal, 911, Al Gore"s "Every kid needs the internet tax" and Rural Electrification.
PS: I saw the tearful, cheering, Standing Ovation on the Emmy's last night for that worthless, lying, pos Gore who showed up to have some words about some kid propaganda TV show that is infesting the minds of our children with BS. I thought I was going to puke.
