Good morning folks.

I recently dumped my regular land line and replaced it with a OOMA phone. One of the cool features is any phone call I get from politicians or telemarketers I can go in and just block. They will never call again. I had three blocked calls yesterday.

Since it is a new toy I like go to the web site and check all of my calls. It shows the phone number and labels them as missed calls. I get peace and quiet and my phone functions just fine. I can block all the charity calls begging for my donations, but mostly with the election in full swing to block the political calls is wonderful. And my phone bill is now a grand total of $3.75 per month and all of that is taxes.

I did get one call yesterday from the bank our club uses for the local Porsche club. I am the treasurer of the club and I made a deposit in the night drop yesterday. When the bank called I figured I had somehow made a mistake on the deposit. I called them back and they wanted to offer me a home equity loan! WFT, I have never dealt with them for anything except the club business, and they want to loan me money. I was not friendly at all but I did refrain from yelling or cussing. If I ever decide I need to take on some debt for whatever reason it will not be at a bank, it will be at my credit union.
