    I am between 78 and 80.....if you can guess my age then you are not old.....I will attest to the fact, "growing old ain't for wimps".....

    Based on your list, I would say we grew up the same time period....you forgot the "2 party" phone lines...

    Two party!!!!!!! Our first one had 7 people on it. Had distinctive rings... our number was 791R2 which meant ring twice. One elderly lady's call was 4 rings and it took her forever to get to the phone so we listened to 4 rings repeated over several minutes until she finally heard it and made her way to the phone.

    Growing up in West Texas, we were on a party line as well. Can't recall how many folks were on it. But, I'll always remember that our incoming call rings were two short and a long.

    We didn't have a phone when I was young. There were few rural lines. We went to the gin at Frog Jump, Tn to call. 10c local., Tn

    Remind me when fire was first harnessed? That is my guess. Someplace between dirt and fire! Dinasaures roamed the earth.
