Willy's Cell Phone

Willy was out at the local "Hillbilly Possum Grit Grill and Cantina" today and was just relaxing and enjoying a lunch outing with the little wife and daughter. The Cantina was especially crowded today and its a little small to start with to handle the crowds that like to congregate there on Saturdays.

Well, it was then and there that Willy decided he needed to go home and practice using all of the things that were on his cell phone. Cause you see Willy had already come to the conclusion that this new fangled toy was more than just something to talk on. Cause you see, Willy's skills with his cell phone consist of dialing a number and talking or opening it up and talking when it rings.

Willy done set there today and watched about 18 people doing other things than talking on their cell phone. It appears that everyone under 30 had a cell phone and was typing to each other on it. Well during the meal Willy's daughter even sent a text message to her tournament fishing husband to ask how many fish he had caught. Willy even thinks that the two college kids sitting in the same booth across from the little family was talking to each other by texting on their cell phones - maybe they were undercover agents and couldn't say anything out loud that others might here.

Well, across the way Willy done seen another man pull out his cell phone and start to calculate his ticket that he believed that Juanita (beautiful waitress at the Cantina) had calculated wrong. Willy believes that if the guy thought it was wrong he would probably use the email on his phone to contact his accountant to check it out for him.

Well, Willy done sees another young girl waiting on a table and she had ear plugs in her ear and had a little wiggle to her step. Willy done thinks she might have one of them IPOD things with all of the music. But oh no! Her music machine done started ringing and she began to talk through this "blue tooth" thing stuck in her ear. (And Willy thought a "Blue Tooth was something from a blue monster or something). What else can you do on these cell phones that Willy has to learn.

Well, next thing you know, a middle aged man that knows that Willy is such a celebrity at the Cantina that he steps up and asks if he can take his picture with Willy. Well, Willy done takes off his sun glasses and straightens up his hat a little to pose for the picture. Then the man hands his cell phone to his wife. Willy done says - I aint got time for you to call the photographer, Willy has to get home and take his nap you know. Well, the man informs Willy that he is using the Cell phone to take the picture. When he gets through, he is going to send the picture in an email to the local "Ozark Hillbilly Gazette" cause he wants his picture to show up this week in the society page for everyone to see.

Well, this is getting tough. Willy done knows how to talk on the phone but now Willy has to learn to email, Text, send pictures and nobody knows what else he may have to figure out.

Then along comes the lady that says she is big into "YouTube" Well, Willy done heard about that internet site. He done watched some "Arkansas Razorback" footage on that site. One even had Houston Nutt using his cell phone to text message someone. (Willy done thinks thats gret that a head football coach done learned how to really use that text message thing for a good cause, especially right before kickoff of a bowl game.) Well, the little lady thought that Willy could sing good and she wanted to video this and put it on YouTube. Wonder if any one will look at it over there.

Willy done think this cell phone thing is done to much overwhelming. Willy believes that it has gone to far when he sees what he saw about a week ago at a concert. Willy was done sitting behind this young man and girl when they began to kiss with great passion. The little lady had one arm around the boy, both hands around his neck, the cell phone perched behind his head in one hand. With her thumb on her right hand she preceded to type at least 40 words a minute to her girlfriend about how good the concert was.

Willy enjoyed the concert too. Willy believes he is going to stick to talking on the cell phone for now. Hello! How do you work this thing!

CAN YOU HEAR ME NOW!

Vonage Might be Willy's Choice

Hillbilly Willy is ahead of his times when it comes to knowing about this VoIP stuff. Willy done knows that stands for voice over IP network. This is a fancy way for saying that inovative companies like Vonage have perfected the way to use your todays technology to create a better and cheaper way to talk over the telephone.

Willy, hard to believe, a few years ago was VP of technology for a company and Willy done had this computer geek that always wanted to try to get the company to go VoIP all the time. Well at that time there were not great people like Vonage around and it wasn't quite the thing it is now.

Willy done knows that this Vonage company has this going now very well. The Vonage website that you can get to by clicking on one of these links will tell you what you need to know about this great idea. On their site at Vonage you can see what real customers think about the service and how it might work for you.

Willy done thinks that after reading all of the reviews, the news and information from the Vonage site that he might just think about signing up for this service. Heck you never know when Willy might need to call a take out order down at the "Hillbilly Possum Grits Grill and Cantina" Man some possum would be good right now!

Check it out!

Willy & Bid4prizes - Yes! I Can Win!

Willy done found him a great place to Bid for stuff and looks like I could win! Willy's new found site is bid4prizes. Willy can't believe that this site lets you bid4prizes, yes bid on cool products, but the new twist on bid4prizes is that the LOWEST UNIQUE bidder actually wins the auction!.

But Willy's question is if you win one of these great prizes form bid4prizes, what would you do with it. Willy done thinks this is such a unique site that if Willy won a great prize from bid4prizes site, Willy might just give it to Juanita down at the "Possum Grits, Grill and Redneck Cantina". Willy, ain't so sure about that though. The little wife might think that this is a little too much of a tip for little ole Juanita. Cause you know, all she does is serve the food.

Or if Willy won a price from bid4prizes he might just give it to the local charity, "Rednecks for a Peaceful Life"

Well, again all Willy can say is that, Willy don't understand exactly how they can do what they do, but Will believes that everybody should go to the web site of bid4prizes and take a look. Willy thinks this might be one of the neatest ideas to come to the hill country web connections in a long time.

Also Willy knows that even though he gets a little redneck bucks for mentioning this site, Willy wouldn't mention it if he hasn't gone there and thinks it might be a good idea.

Check out bid4prizes.

Willy and the Ungrateful Kid!

Well, Willy on behalf of his big company done had the opportunity to do some community give back stuff. The local community people was giving a all day demonstration for the local school kids to learn about agriculture.

Well, Willy on behalf of his company, done turned into the one person committee in charge of feeding all of the volunteers --about 150 in all. The volunteers consisted of 80 year olds down to about 12 year olds. This one person committee idea worked well as far as the thinking, organizing and planning. Willy did it like he wanted to, asked no one their ideas and bought what he wanted to. Problem was that when it came to the cooking and cleaning up, Willy done had that by himself also.

Well, all went well most of the day. Willy done fed all of the volunteers donuts at 7:30 in the morning, had water available all day long for the thirsty ones and fed hot dogs, chips and drinks at lunch.

Well, the thinking part of the drinks is where Willy done had him a slight problem. You see when Willy did his shopping at the Big Walmart store, they had cokes, diet cokes, water and sprite. There was not a Mt Dew in the place. Willy thinks this is all right.

Willy found, however, from a young 12 year old man that quote "suggestion for next year Mr. Willy" (He was respectful and called me Mr.) you got to have Mt Dew and Dr. Pepper cause that is what us young folks like to drink.

Willy sometimes gets a little upset when a young upstart done starts to tell Willy what he done wrong. You see, Willy done had about 149 people done tell him how great the donuts was, how wonderful them Petit Jean Hot dogs was and how cold the water was. By that time Willy's head was beginning to tell Willy how great of a planner, thinker and organizer he was.

So why then did the 150th volunteer, the young 12 year old, have to give Willy a little constructive criticism. Willy done think he got a hold of a young ungrateful kid!

Willy done got mad and under his breath done talked about how bad America's kids were. Didn't this smart kid done know how hard Willy had done worked. Willy done want to know why the kids of today are so terrible.

WAIT A MINUTE WILLY! WILLY DONE SAID TO HIMSELF! OVER HALF OF THE VOLUNTEERS WERE UNDER THE AGE OF 18. ALL OF THOSE DONE TOLD YOU WILLY, HOW GOOD THEM HOT DOGS WERE. ONE SMART KID SAID SOMETHING A LITTLE CRITICAL (BUT HE DID SAY MISTER) MAYBE TODAYS KIDS AREN'T SO BAD AFTER ALL.

WAIT A MINUTE KID ----WHAT DO YOU WANT! WILLY DONE HAVING SOME DEEP THOUGHTS HERE. WHAT---- OH! THANKS KID, SO YOU SAY THE HOT DOGS WERE PRETTY GOOD EVEN IF YOU DID/NT HAVE A MT. DEW.

OK! WILLY GUESS ALL 150 VOLUNTEERS HAVE NOW CHECKED IN!
