I checked on this, and since you are a Classic member with the classic templates, the calling card feature is available if you use one of the default templates.
(There is information on adding the calling card feature for those with the Gold plan in the News entry.)

Re: BlogitStaff-Jackie
No harm done. :) Is there one blog somewhere that breaks the whole thing down? I don't see those links on everyone's blog, so do I have to do something that adds them to mine? If there is, is that why I can't click on that link somewhere else? Thanks for your help.

Oops, didn't mean to imply that you should have seen it already, just that I was repeating stuff from another comment in case it looked familiar! 
I tried Firefox on Windows and didn't get an error message, so it's probably an issue on Mac Firefox. I'll check it out.

Re: BlogitStaff Jackie
There is so much info on this it's hard to find it all and get the answers, sorry. I'm on a Mac and my browser is Firefox listed with the following information under "about Firefox" --
Mozilla/5.0 (Macintosh; U; Intel Mac OS X; en-US; rv:1.8.1.12) Gecko/20080201 Firefox/2.0.0.12. Thanks!

As I also mentioned in another response, the problem that people were concerned about was this: there were some people who would leave a smiley or brief phrase on a large number of blogs within a few minutes without actually reading the blogs.
Their purpose was to spam the comment section and pretend that they read each author's work when they actually didn't.
By spamming comments, they got more readers to click on their nickname and read their blogs. Such behavior is bad since it increases a spammer's earnings at the expense of other writers' earnings. In addition, such behavior also discourages other readers from using the comments for discussion.
Since calling cards are private, comment spammers have far less incentive to use them. Genuine readers -- who want to leave something for the writer -- don't mind that calling cards are private.
Could you tell me which web browser (and version) you are using? I can then try to reproduce the problem you're seeing and get it addressed.
