Sometimes when you don’t have any coinage, the next best method for making a call is to use a phone card. In fact, some phone cards will actually give you a better rate than using plain old metal money.

PhoneCardsAvenue.com is a business specializing in cheap phone cards. They’ve been doing what they do on an international level for a while now. Yep, you guessed it. If you wanted to get an international phone card through PhoneCardsAvenue, you could. And there’s a bonus.

Recently, PhoneCardsAvenue began a cash rebate program. So for every calling card or phone card purchase you make with them, you’ll be entitled to getting 3% back. So if you spent One Hundred Billion Dollars, you’d get 3 Billion Dollars back. Can you imagine what you could buy with 3 Billion Dollars? Like, the world! Totally!

PhoneCardsAvenue.com can provide you with a means to an end, the end being a phone call from one nation to another (perhaps from overseas to your home in the good ol’ US of A for some happy holiday moments), and the means being inexpensive and convenient.

I am amassing quite a fortune. I should really think about looking into Swedish banking!

What a weird name for a claims officer: Mr. Roland White Email. Who names their kid Email? Anyway, I'm glad I won the full $2.490 Million. That's 2 million, plus 400 thousand, plus ninety thousand, plus zero thousand. It's a good thing they kept that zero on there, otherwise I might have missed out on all that "extra" cash! In order to contact them, I plan (no, not really) on sending them my Name In Full, my Address In Full, my Telephone/Fax number In Full, but then only part of my Nationality, the "tens" digit of my Age, the first three letters of my Country, and an abbreviation of my Occupation!

Hey wait, did this come from a Baldwin Brother?

Recently I've noticed quite a few different "Bee Movie" ads on television. First, I saw the "TV minis," long commercials designed to entertain as well as inform those watching that Seinfeld is indeed a part of a movie. And that we should all see it. Ok, cool. Then I noticed the ads that used "Bee Movie" scenes and voices, but were also advertising other things. I've seen the McDonald's one. That might be it there. Then I saw one where Seinfeld is doing the HP Pavilion notebook PC hand thing, and he works in another couple of "Bee Movie" plugs.

So. Seinfeld is getting paid for doing "Bee Movie," and also for helping sell Happy Meals, and also for promoting computers. He's gotta be raking in the cash!

I had wondered at one point why we don't see many commercials like the "Bee Movie" + McDonald's combo after the relevant film has lost the status of being "brand new." I figure it must be the allure, the mystery, and the appeal of a new film that is being pushed to the public. We're advertised in so many other places to go see "Bee Movie" that when a commercial comes on and seems to reveal part of the film, we're all eyes and ears. Or maybe just the younger generation pays attention? "Wow, 'Bee Movie' is on TV! Hey, can we go to McDonald's? Pleeeeaasssssseee??"

Excellent work!

I'm sure the appeal is there for all celebrities (and pretty much everyone else, for that matter) to "cash in" whenever possible. But still… I wonder if Seinfeld is afraid he won't get similar endorsement deals in the near future? I don't see why not. I can imagine him doing many more high-profile projects. Bills to pay? Or maybe an empty money pool…
