Buongiorno Timothy ❤
Good morning my friend ☕️ 😎
Good morning, Violeta!
You can call him Al…call him Al. Sorry, had to do it 🙂
Thanks, Teri! Just call him Al.
Now the song is stuck in my own head!
A blast from the past.
Thanks, Julie!
I don’t remember that far back, but I do recall that when I was a kid, our phone number was 2 letters followed by 5 numbers.
Hi Cathy. I remember calling ten miles down the road was long distance, party lines, and rotary phones, but the phone numbers always had 7 digits that I remember.
We actually dialed 7 digits, turning the letters into numbers. Our # was Granite 42006. We dialed the first two letters of granite, which translated to 47, then the #s. I don’t know why the # was prefixed with a word, but it was. We were on an 8-party line way back in the age of dinosaurs.
What a cool thing to have, a piece of mobile local history that pops up from time to time.
Thanks, Matt!
