We had a party line when I was a kid.
The first telephone I remember had no dial at all. You simply picked up the handset and the operator said "number please". You gave her the number and she placed the call. Also was a party line..I still remember our number...444-R4...There were certain people on the line who always listened in..We lived in the sticks on a dairy farm...

Just doing a bit of research here on our demographics. I'd appreciate it if you answered the anonymous poll honestly.

Discuss.

Can we have a middle finger emoji? On the like dislike line.:-)

You are conversing with a retired Dairy farmer and you have me beat on the phone.

I'm planning my retirement. I have to figure out how to get the most money out of our oldest members before they croak off.

I "retired" from dairy farming at age 18.. Joined the Navy and never looked back..Couldn't see milking cows every 12 hours for the rest of my life. Plus at that time, early 60's, there was no profit whatsoever.

Wife says I’m 16, 17 at times. It varies.
I say I’m 39, and have been for 15 years.
You do the math.

If this were a message board for nole$, vole$, butt sniffer$ or any SEC West fans, you would’ve completely baffled at least 90% of the board with your mathematical wizardry.

It would be fascinating to see this distribution on, say, Swamp Gas. Wonder if the “differences” are a generational thing?
Those fvkkers are older, no doubt. All 0-10-1 types who are just glad if we go 6-6.

Old Fart Story: When I was in elementary school our teacher let us skip school to watch the World Series. A friend's family got the first color tv in town. Dodgers verses Yankees (I believe) in LA, greenest grass I've ever seen.

I remember seeing cars with hand cranks in the front and phones with cups to speak in

AARP baby!

Gordon Solie was my hero as a kid (thanks Grandpa).
Loved me some Dusty too
