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. After i grew up, and before i got married and moved to my own home, the phone at our home would ring, and we'd answer it, but nobody would say anything, just sit there, breathing into the phone--then after several minutes, they'd hang up. Found out some years later it had been a jilted girl friend, doing a bit of payback. After marriage, and our move away from town, we bought a house, with a party line. 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!
