HOW FUNNY!!! Made me laugh out loud!! I remember listening in on our neighbors when we had a party line. The thing I heard were not fit for a 12-year-old's ears and I was dumb enough to ask my Mom what those things meant. That led to "Where'd you hear THAT??" and I was caught, LOL. Didn't stop me though.
I even remember "Number please," from the operator. Boy, were those the good old days or WHAT???? I absolutely hate my cell phone. I only carry it because I go so many places with my grandchildren and their mothers insisted I be able to get ahold of them. Sure lived a lot easier lives when we COULDN'T be reached in a car. My goodness!!!"
