Re: Friday Funnies - early



About a year ago, I was at my eye doctor's office, talking to him about when
my son got his first glasses he could not read letters, so he was shown
symbols, such as a telephone.  The doctor said, yes, in recent times, he has
had to update his images he shows little children, as they don't recognize a
telephone anymore.  To these youngsters, a telephone looks like a cell
phone, not the standard desk model.

Also recently, at a garage sale, my daughter insisted that I buy a telephone
for her as a toy.  It has a rotary dial and she was not familiar with it.
So, we now own the phone.

My eleven year old niece recently discovered my old 45-RPM collection
and wanted to know where I had gotten the "big CDs".
