Question: If my girlfriend lives in In. and my mom won't let me talk to her on the phone what doI do? 

Answer: If you have high speed internet you can use Voice chat programs to talk to eachother. Even Dial-up internet connections can work, though it's worse sound quality and you sometimes have to use it as a walky-talkie. (1 person speaking at a time).\n\nThe names of a couple programs... Google Talk, Skype, Gizmo.\n\nA cell phone with nationwide coverage the lowest minutes and unlimited night and weekend minutes works as well.\n\nType messaging (E-mails & IM's) through the internet.\n\n\nIf one of you has high-speed internet but the other does not you could use something like Skype. Which has an option to pay a few dollar per month (I think $3)and get a couple different virtual phone numbers in any area code you want. Get a number local to the person with-out High Speed internet.\n\nThat person calls the local number and it's forwarded to the computer with the internet connection for free.\n\nYou can also use Skype to Call-Out to any Normal Phone number in the US for about 2 pennies a minute.\n\nFission
