...Guess I wasn't completely clear (sorry brown!). <br /><br />When I lived in Minneapolis, we bought an answering machine. It's a one-time-only fee of about 12 smackaroos. Not bad. Voicemail is more of a continuous fee, as is caller ID. <br /><br />Personally, I'd rather have an answering machine than a beefed up phone bill every month. Then again, I'm cheap.Sunnyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10230125720862676911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7596405.post-1100367253010832412004-11-13T11:34:00.000-06:002004-11-13T11:34:00.000-06:00I guess the question was what if you had to choose...I guess the question was what if you had to choose.

I like the message aspect. But then, sometimes, if I know who it is, I'd rather just talk to them and get it over with than listen to their message and then still probably have to call them back. Anyhow, I have both. I'm really not sure if I could decide between them. ~brownAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7596405.post-1100359352920791872004-11-13T09:22:00.000-06:002004-11-13T09:22:00.000-06:00caller id. i'm a screener too. i have caller id ...caller id. i'm a screener too. i have caller id on the cell but not on my home phone so i'll use the answering machine. i use *69 if i get too curious. the only reason i have the land line is i'm cheap and still have dial-up or i'd get rid of it.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7596405.post-1100299605768682322004-11-12T16:46:00.000-06:002004-11-12T16:46:00.000-06:00She's not kidding about screening the calls - I ca...She's not kidding about screening the calls - I called from work and she picked up then hung up. It was great. :)<br /><br />I'm thinking both. I like the idea of knowing who called and didnt leave a message and those that did as well. It covers all your bases that way. If I had to choose one, probably the caller id. I hate the way you can get messages on the answering machine and have it as nothing but three minutes of dead air. Then you can wonder who called and said nothing for that long. You'll never know. I'm not neurotic about it, mind you, but it will stick in the back of my head for a while.Byagihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02543192109428436939noreply@blogger.com
