re: #521 urbanmeemaw

I turn 64 today, my daughter is 40, one grandson is graduating high school next spring. Talk about feeling old, sigh. (Drooling Boring Boomer Alert): I remember when you picked up the phone, the operator said, “Number, Please”, and had to give her the number so she could make the call. Also, too, party lines. And dinosaurs carried the phone company installers to your house. Sigh.

Happy birthday!

Mr. w’s first phone number was one long and two short. That’s how the party line rang when it was for his house.
