Land Lines

We're considering disabling our land line and switching to all cell phones (one for her, one for me).

Disadvantages: I hate cell phones, and have no interest in carrying one. Our internet access is over the land line as well.

Advantages: I pay Verizon $50 a month for what? For a bunch of fees and taxes, that's what--not sending them money would make me happy. We NEVER use the phone except to call Bubba's or Pizza Palace, and we get our long distance and Cha's current cell through Working Assets, so I think if we got two cell phones via Working Assets that it would be cheaper than what we're paying right now to Verizon alone. I could use the extra money to buy cable TV and cable internet, thus eliminating all need for a land line in the house and seriously speeding up my PORN downloads.

I'm seriously considering this, though switching all my stuff from Earthlink to Comcast would suck a bit, it might be well worth the effort.
