The pay-as-you-go aspect worked well for me. I was required to buy some minutes
every few months - but, they rolled over (and over, and over) to the point that
when I gave the phone to my friend Les there were over 300 minutes in the bank
- which he could use so long as he kept the same number.

Actually calls to *any* AT&T/Cingular phone are "free". And there are no
long-distance or roaming charges. And since I don't use the World Wide Wait
aspect at all I'm not a burden on his plan.  Bv)=

      Title: Brother David's Grilled Chicken & Ribs
 Categories: Pork, BBQ, Poultry, Sauces
      Yield: 10 servings
 
    1/4 c  Olive oil
      3 lb Chicken pieces; skin on
      3 lb Slab pork ribs
           Salt and pepper
    1/4 c  Garlic powder
           Sweet & Tangy Barbecue
           - Sauce
 
  Brother David is my brother David, the one whose backyard
  I am always borrowing. He loves to grill and we all love
  it when he does! Hey, the sauce is my recipe, though, so
  don't give him credit for that.
  
  Lightly brush your grill with olive oil and preheat it to
  approximately 350oF/175oC.
  
  In the meantime, rinse the meat, pat it dry, and season
  with salt, pepper, and garlic powder. Arrange the chicken
  and ribs on the grill. Resist turning the meat for at
  least 5 minutes. This will help it sear nicely. After 5
  minutes or so, turn the meat over, sear the other side for
  5 more minutes. Turn again, and this time, brush the meat
  with the barbecue sauce. Then turn again every 5 minutes,
  repeating the process of brushing the meat with sauce
  until the chicken and ribs are cooked through and the
  barbecue sauce begins to caramelize and form a crust on
  the meat (35 to 40 minutes).
  
  Serve with more barbecue sauce on the side.
