One nice thing about a land line is that you can’t misplace it. Another is that you can’t drop it inter the terlit. Uh...a friend told me about that...
regarding bygone days..

I am such a techie dinosaur anyway. My cell phone is just for phones even though I have a blackberry.. I do text now & then but am slow & inefficient with it. So much easier to click/call.I love the neat things available now but just dont have most things due to economic constraints. My brother provides my cell phone on his family plan. So in Ohio I have a Oklahoma number ! and feel a bit constrained to not abuse the shared minutes.
I use my computer /email/etc for most communication.. like 90%
