IN THE BOOK?
We've heard a lot of complaints lately
about the snail like pace of mail deliveries.
When I checked our mail yesterday I was
quite surprised by what I found. It was a
Telephone Directory. Anybody else remember
them? Time was when these once thick books
listed all the telephone numbers of people in
your town supplemented by an equally think
section of Yellow Pages listing all the local
businesses. There was a time when someone
tried to prove their strength by ripping a New
York City Telephone Directory in half. I, with
an injured right arm and age against me, could
easily tear this new one in half. In fact I'm
tempted to do just that because I'm not listed!
I've had a hope (land line) telephone since
before some of the people who are listed were
ever born! I used to tell people it was easy
to reach me. I'd say "I'm in the book." But
now I'm not! Guess you'll have to reach me
right here or on Facebook. Hope you're well,
that you made the bood, and that all your NEWS
is good!
