Years ago I had a phone repair in a veterans home that I used to hit regularly. I'm in the basement at the netpop, disconnect the line from 3 station cables, it clears. I put the cables back on one at a time, find the cable that is shorting the line, leave it off. Somewhere in the building, I'm going to find a dead phone, so I go upstairs walk around checking phones. An elderly man, resident, comes up and asks if I can get his money back from a payphone. I politely explain that I have nothing to do with payphones and continue on in my search. I run into the gentleman a couple of more times, he asks me again to help him get his money back from a payphone. In a hallway in one of the wings, I run into a courtesy wall phone for the staff to use, just a WC like in your every day kitchen, it has my number on it, I pick up the reciever, its dead. I found my phone. I take it off of the wall, and I hear jingling from inside. I open it up, there's a bunch of change, nickles, dimes, quarters in it shorting it out. That same elderly gentleman comes up tuging at my sleave and asks me if he can have his change back. I'm laughing my butt off by then. The little slits in the base between the plastic cover, the poor fella's been shoving coins in so he can make an outside call from a restricted phone.

One day, if all goes well, we will all be happy in the best of ways, I hope.

Mark
