I'm 84 now, and telephone service now is just great! I went thru all of the above, with party lines and all. As a kid, i wasn't allowed to use the phone, except to call a relative who might live too far away, to thank them for a gift.

Whenever it rang, somebody else would pick up their phone and listen in--we could hear breathing. My wife-bless her heart--finally blew a police whistle into the listener's ears, and that crap stopped suddenly! I sure like the new phones! Carry one on my belt, in a little case. What sound does it make when it rings? Why, a rooster crowing--what else!
