    Pay phone?  I thought those calls were supposed to be free but maybe they're trying to make up for budget cuts.  The message I heard when I answered my phone was "This is a call originating from the correctional center."  What did you do now, Randy?

      Well, what the filthy cops accused me of is a tilde deal gone wrong, but I’m telling you it was all on the level and I bought those tildes fair and square from a very reputable dealer in Northern Spain last year. I’m sure I’ll beat the rap, but I can’t do a thing from inside the joint, it’ll take a cool $2,750 bail money to get me out. Spring me just this one last time, Livvie, and I’ll cut you in for 4.5% of all the take.

    All phones are pay phones. Just take a look at your phone bill.

    You'd be hard-pressed to find one in New York City.  They're as scarce as hen's teeth.
