I like the good old days.  So do you.  (-:

RW> What landline?
 
I should have known.  Everybody is doing that, with me as a possible lone
exception.  I like being able to call Canada for free.  I don't have that
luxury on my cell phone.

I can figure that one out by myself.

Been there, done that.  It's a PITN.

Monday through (except Tuesday) Friday I do nothing and Saturday and Sunday I
rest.  The only ones who text me are my SIL and two of my grandchildren. With
the latter, I don't hear from them during the day because of school.

I can always email you a copy or you could see it on google+.  I really like
the ones of Bob and his son Robin.  (-:[

I don't know why you bother.

I have a pet name for that.  I call it "The Blessed Silence Key."  :-)
