Please, Mom, please – just because I have a tummy ache, you don’t have to call the ambulance to take me to the emergency room…
A few nice Calling Card images I found:

Note: this photo was published in an undated (late Feb 2011) Free Online Tarot Card blog, with the same caption and detailed notes that I had written on this Flickr page. It was also published in a May 26, 2011 blog titled "Where can I buy a phone card so i can call from the us to ireland?"
****************
This is a continuation of a Flickr set that I started in the summer of 2009. As I noted in that earlier collection of photos, I still have many parts of New York City left to explore — but I’ve also realized that I don’t always have to go looking elsewhere for interesting photographs. Some of it is available just outside my front door.
I live on a street corner on the Upper West Side of Manhattan where there’s an express stop on the IRT subway line (with a new space-age subway station scheduled to be completed by fall 2010), as well as a crosstown bus stop, an entrance to the West Side Highway, and the usual range of banks, delis, grocery stores, fast-food shops, mobile-phone stores, drug-stores, Dunkin’ Donuts, Starbucks, Subway, and other commercial enterprises. As a result, there are lots of interesting people moving past my apartment building, all day and all night long.
It’s easy to find an unobtrusive spot on the edge of the median strip separating the east side of Broadway from the west side; nobody pays any attention to me as they cross the street from east to west, and nobody even looks in my direction as they cross from north to south (or vice versa). In rainy weather, sometimes I huddle under an awning of the T-Mobile phone store on the corner, so I can take pictures of people under their umbrellas, without getting my camera and myself soaking wet…
So, these are some of the people I thought were photo-worthy during the past few weeks and month; I’ll add more to the collection as the year progresses … unless, of course, other parts of New York City turn out to be more compelling from time to time.

Now that’s what I call 30

CD case (containing CD1), CD2 beside the case, and inlay card with track-listing and sleeve-notes. The sizes weren’t quite right (the inlay card’s too small and the cover of the CD case is too big… and of course that cover would actually be part of the inlay on a real CD) but I think it conveys the general idea.
Every part of the cake is edible (though admittedly there’s probably more icing than cake).
