Friday Fun: Call the Political Parlor!

I have always enjoyed hearing from readers, and some point me in the directions of very interesting stories that you end up seeing here (and that you will end up seeing here).

phonebutton.gifNow, you can call the Political Parlor, thanks to a new service from Jaxtr. It’s free, easy, and no special equipment is needed. My phone number remains protected from any ninny who thinks his red hot internet stock tip is more important than my dinner time, and the caller’s number is protected also.

Feel encouraged to call up and pass on any constructive criticism, tell me about a story that you think is underreported, simply say ‘howdy,’ or test how the whole process works. Settings will usually be set so that calls go straight to voice mail.

BTW, this is a beta version. You can sign up for an account of your own at the website, but if they put you on a waiting list, I think I can send you an invitation that allows you to try it out immediately if you let me know.
