Rates for calls to cell phones are generally significantly higher, but they will vary from one company to another and by the country the call is going to.

Big sound from small speakers at a budget price

RJH <patchmoney@gmx.com>: Aug 12 04:39PM +0100 > Am I asking for too much?   Yup :-)   I've found the Sonos One is pretty good - fills a room with quite good quality sound. But hardly budget, and it's tricky trying to work out how long it'll last. Also, the Amazon Echo isn't too bad.   IMO best for the money would be a variation on a Denon mini hifi:   https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm//132733251186   Find them in charity shops from time to time.   -- Cheers, Rob

You don't need a pay phone that accepts phone cards, any phone or any pay phone should work. The phone calling cards have a toll free or local number you call, enter your card code, then you dial your long distance call. Look around, including online for the best rate cards.

You'll have to buy a TracFone and activate it and buy a phone card for it.

Even my mother two years ago went with cremation, I hadn't expected that. The ashes are supposed to be buried with her parents, but their still behind the tv set.   Nothing's more permanent than death, so why worry about it? Let someone else deal with it. I'm joking.   I was just reading that the tombstones where my great, great grandmother and her siblings are buried were in bad shape. No government money, though it's considered a historical site. But the church finally got some money from somewhere and worked on the graveyard. But the money ran out before they were all done. So some "Clan Ross' group raised some money and finished it off, the website detailing it even had a photo of my great, great grandmother's tombstone all restored.   It's weird to be uncovering all this family history, and the reason I can is that family history is actually some level of history, period.   Michael
