A Text From 62262

It’s not uncommon for me to read text messages from my roommate asking to borrow my earrings or maybe even one from my best friend asking when I am coming to Dallas to visit her. No matter what the text messages read they always seem to be messages from a friend pertaining to senseless info or encouraging forwards. I always know what to expect when my T-Pain featuring lil Wayne text message ring tone sounds until I received a message from “62262.”

The “62262” text message read: “Barack will announce his VP candidate choice through txt msg between now & the Conv. Tell everyone to text VP to 62262 to be the first to know!” What?!?!

Corporate America is really getting “urban” on me with all the technology. They are really getting hooked to the current times, even the presidential hopefuls. McCain already turned to Britney Spears and Paris Hilton. Next, we’ll probably have Barack sing lyrics to Rocko’s “Umma Do Me” as he tries to stray away from tradition and show America what he’s all about. Think about it. How many past presidential candidates do you know have youth blowing up your phone about voting, or sending daily text messages about the campaign? I don’t recall any.

Like celebrity rapper, TayDizm, always say: “Talk to me and I’ll talk back.” Text me and I’ll text back.
