OMG! I can't txt! I am not LOL!

The people in charge of the news budget at WSB-TV have cut us off. No texting patches to stick on our arms to help wean us off our addiction. No support groups. Just cold turkey.

I really can't blame them. We are spending something like a kajillion (I'm rounding here) dollars on our cell phone company every month, and this company still charges us a certain number of cents ( I think it might be 15 cents, but I'm not certain) for every single text message!

Ridiculous! Clark says it cost practically nothing for a cell phone company to provide text messages. It's a cash cow for them. Well, no more! This company is losing our text money. As I go through the pain of withdrawal, at least I can take comfort in that!

What others are saying

  • Unlimited texting plans
    Gosh, Patti, our little family of 5 has unlimited texting for about $30/month. Surely a profitable, multi-million dollar enterprise with a kajillion-dollar budget has more negotiating power than we do.
