is it me? I can't parse this, meow. You been hanging out with tw?

We still have plenty of pay phones here. Probably not as many as there used to be, but still plenty about.

Archaic are cars without power steering over here. The only one I know of that's still registered for the road is my fathers '76 land cruiser.

Just take a deep breath and try again ... laughtracks. Archaic. Still using the same recorded giggles as I Love Lucy. Now, look at UT's comment about turntable pop and hiss.

Do kids still plaster their walls with posters of their idols? Mine don't... but they could just be weird.

Millions of people do.

really? thanks. I did wonder that it wouldn't have disappeared, but here it seems there are discounts on bundles that make high-speed non-dial up "free" or cheaper. I don't know anyone who uses dial-up any more, even my friends who are so anti-technology they still don't have cellphones. But we are in a suburban college town.

and table cleaners at Horn and Hardart...

;)

not to mention the change girls.

Denial. Not just a river in Africa...

Our car doesn't have power windows. It's funny when we give rides to other kids. Some of them can't figure out how to roll down the window. They have to ask one of our kids how to do it.

one of ours doesn't. Thor was so excited to manually wind down the Window! (he's too little to sit in the front and it's a 2-door, so he was just passing time and wondering what the windy things were.... :lol:

The phone lines in my area only support dial-up Don't be hatin' ;)

the biggest thing for me in watching movies and such is the pre/post cell phone split. Mobile phones have changed our behavior so much.

Remember the scene in Lethal Weapon when Roger stops the car, and uses the "mobile" phone in the trunk of the car to complain about how crazy his partner is?

I was about to mention that very scene! The damn thing is bigger than a shoebox. :lol:

Speaking of archaic, has Urbane Guerrilla been about lately? ;)
