Heck, I even remember picking up the receiver and getting an operator to connect the call.<br /><br /> August 14, 2017 at 8:08 AM:<br /><br />My Mom WAS an operator. No dial tones, just the operator's voice asking "number please." I would call when my mom was at work and when the operator answered, I would ask to speak to my "Mommy." They all knew who to connect me to. The numbers in our little town we just three digit numbers. I remember ours, and the neighbor's across the street.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31586983.post-53086422849639460262017-08-14T14:46:03.525-04:002017-08-14T14:46:03.525-04:00August 14, 2017 at 11:04 AM:

That's about the time I just got my 8 transister AM only radio that I held to my ear because the reception was so bad. And my black and white TV had two channels. Of course now I get 200 channels but I only watch two.
