When I was a kid, you could pick up the phone and hold it. The operator would come on and say operator. I could say I want to talk to Aunt Lynn and she might say she went to the grocery store and would be home in about an hour. Then ask how I was doing.
Tell'em I'll be there.

Oh for a much simpler time. We didn't have email or instant anything. The Goverment wasn't into building cars. You didn't have to pay to watch commercials on tv. Companies actually stood by the promises they made to employees. Laws dealing with hunting and fishing weren't written in such a way as to confuse people.
