Hey,
I've been stranded for 2 monthes- not being able to log on
(stupid web provider company) anyway good to be back

I loved the post about Jon cellphone call
well, talking about cellphones take a look a this:

Smart, Britney and Your Cell Phone

HOLLYWOOD--(BUSINESS WIRE)--March 7, 2005--American IDC

CelebrityTextChat(TM) is a new SMS or "text messaging" service
that allows old and new celebrities, for the 1st time in history, to be in direct contact with their fans through their cell phones,
and generate money from each message.
"Hi, this is Britney. I just got married... Oops, I did it again!" could hit thousands of mobile handsets within seconds while the celebrity earns money on each message.

"What better way to be in direct contact with your fans than sending a SMARTSMS directly to their phone?"
asks Halldor Sanne, CEO and President of SMART, of Jon Bon Jovi, who is considering using the service. "CelebrityTextChat(TM) is a great opportunity for a celebrity like yourself to reach all fans, new and old, to tell them news about your latest release, or when and where you'll be appearing next, or just simply to say 'hello'."

The service is very simple to use:
Say for example Bon Jovi is playing at the Staples Center in Los Angeles. 50,000 people enter the arena, and Bon Jovi asks them to sign in by sending the message BON JOVI to the number 76278. 30% of the arena responds to Bon Jovi's request, and within minutes, Bon Jovi has 15,000 loyal fans who have opted-in to his fan club.
Lets calculate that 200,000 fans have signed in through his World Tour--Bon Jovi sends these loyal fans 4 messages a month, generating $400,000 of revenue that he would have never dreamt of before... $4.8 million a year in NEW revenue!
All while keeping his fans updated on his latest and greatest news--and smiling all the way to the bank.
But of course, getting a personal message from Bon Jovi to your phone would be a big reason to smile too!

"We're sorry to announce that there's gonna be no tour this year. But you can get messages to your phone for price of concert ticket"


Quick cash to be made, sounds like something they'd be interested in.
