    Land Line Phone

    I got the same reaction from my 16 year old son, when i got an iphone. He was checking it out one night and handed it back to me, saying "I don't know why you think you needed this, you don't even have any games on it, or any cool music" :p ..and ditto the "No friends" bit.

    What's for Dinner?

    :cry: oh my, how i miss Arby's curly fries..... They closed down all the Arby's locations here sometime ago. When My husband and I were first married we went to Arbys a couple times a month at least. We did not own a car, and it was not on a bus route,it took us about an hour to walk each...

    Land Line Phone

    yes, I have one, but begrudgingly. It is included in my cable/internet package, and if it were up to me, i would not have cable either. I currently have a set of cordless phones which i also hate. No matter how much I spend on those darned things, they are just garbage. My husband has a...

    The Middy Thread

    Lenore: That cut is gorgeous. I am having little fits of jealousy at the moment. I had my hair cut about a month ago, and even went with pictures, hoping for something exactly like yours. Unfortunately, it was cut way too short. That was cut from a bob, which also didn't turn out as i wanted...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    I live in Apt # 1116. On a weekly basis I get mail for # 116, or they get my mail. Maybe you shouldn't have this job if you can't read big numbers.

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    When i heard this the other day, i was actually suprised that you even had mail delivery on Saturdays. We sure don't. I can't imagine Canada Post ever delivered on saturday. And since the bulk of my mail is either junk or bills, I can't say I'd be excited to see the mailman yet another day of...

    vintage toys

    Awesome 2jakes! The toys i remember most fondly were not even my own. I grew up with an uncle who was really just a couple years older than me, and how i envied his Roy Rogers ranch set and Holster Set. What is really lacking with all these modern battery-operated whizbangers, is that it does...

    "Thirty Things that Need to Stage a Comeback"

    oh, and the three martini lunch. So much nicer than scarfing down a plastic encased sandwich at your desk, before dashing off to a 2 hour meeting in a windowless boardroom. ugh.
