I'd think they'd keep records of who they sold the dog to, at least.

They could have put Daft Punk in TRON. Oh, wait.

I'd been paying $70 per month for a RAZR 2 "dumbphone" andin my current jobless situation, that level of cash outflow for an ordinary cell was not ideal. But I didn't want to go with the average PAYGO plan, in which I would get so many minutes per month and then loose any remaining ones unless I re-upped. I hardly use my cell phone at all, especially since I changed from cablemodem to DSL at the same time and can use my new local-only landline with Google Voice instead of just Gizmo 5. After checking the various plans over, I went with Boost Mobile. They offer a PAYGO option that's a flat 10 cents per minute or MMS, 25 cents per multimedia MMS, 35 cents per day on which I surf the Internet—and no monthly committment or rollover required. You do have to add money at least once every 90 days, but I figured compared to every 30 days I could deal with that. I ported my old phone number over, and so far it's been working out pretty well. I do have a few annoyances with the Sanyo Mirro phone, but on the other hand I'm not paying $70 per month for it. More like $10-$20, at most.

I take notes on Evernote during the interview, then I copy the phone recordings into a directory in my Dropbox so that I can then access them whether I'm on my desktop or my laptop. Then I use Audacity to slow down bits of the recordings I need to transcribe word for word.
