Everything's amazing, nobody's happy...FIXED
There's some funny truths in this clip.
Probably got to be 40 or older to fully appreciate.

You talking about the "bag" cell phones, Reel Cowboy? My ma-in-law still has one stowed away somewhere and swear that thing was about the size of a military SINCGARS radio

Heck yeah. My Dad just got in the last year or so a flip phone. The brain box or whatever it was for the one he had mounted in his truck from 2000 or so. He still doesn't have voice mail or text or e-mail or web just a phone. Most of us my self included) couldn't function like that.big bend gyrene wrote:You talking about the "bag" cell phones, Reel Cowboy?
When I bought my first truck I drove across town to buy diesel for $0.90 a gallon instead of $0.93 at the store by the house.
Dem was the good ol days.

I think we should convert back to rotary dial...maybe it would curb some telemarketers

A lot of truth ... I remember the first car phone ... it was a radio, not a cell phone. Hell, I remember the first color tv ... it caught on quick with that stupid NBC peacock.
Its a wonderful day in the neighborhood!
