“Just imagine in the 1950s getting out the phone-book and dialing people at random …”

Actually, it was a favorite after-school game for a lot of kids back then.

So true. Before caller ID a teenagers imp-magination was the limit.

A quick one was to call a random number and name from the book. If the wife answers ask for the husb. When he gets on ask for the wife. When she gets on ask for the husb. See how many times you could get them to pass the phone back and forth.

Fun stuff.

“Do you have Prince Albert in a can?”
