I'm thinking mid to late late 60's. I remember party line phones (so unlike the "party" lines where you pay to call in and talk advertised on TV today!) but at least I don't remember when you picked up the phone and gave the number to an operator so maybe I'm not as old as I think?<br /><br />The card is so cute and I love the "early twitter" theme!Jan Hoythttp://www.inkerzaway.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322484680662218241.post-491232538145257922012-01-12T07:42:20.372-05:002012-01-12T07:42:20.372-05:00Robin,

The number of rings would determine whose phone was getting the call. I find the computer is my time-sucker, not so much the phone. But I have resisted Twitter so far....but I do love this "twitter"!!!LeAnnehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07196813209388404836noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322484680662218241.post-81243079813334881572012-01-11T17:56:52.648-05:002012-01-11T17:56:52.648-05:00Amazing how phones and computers have changed our ...Amazing how phones and computers have changed our lives, isn't it? I laughed right out at your card. I love it!! I'm also old enough to remember, like Barb Gault, the telephone operator and the manual typewriters we learned on.

I must be related to Andy Rooney. I have a great camera, I take it to important places so I can take a picture. I don't want my camera to be a phone or my phone to be a camera. I can't get my pictures out of my phone, the kids haven't taught me yet. I have a computer that gets me onto the internet and I spend far too much time blog hopping while sitting at my computer. I don't want my phone to be a computer, I already spend too much time on the net and really can't see much on that small screen anyway. I love reading books, I like a book in my hand, I don't want a Nook, I don't want to pay that much for the book. I usually trade books with several friends so we all end up reading the same book and I didn't have to pay for them. <br /><br />Love your sweet card and I do miss the good old days even though I do use the modern conveniences. I feel like I grew up in the stone age, I'm starting to sound like my grandmother.Rosehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06145339193027074659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322484680662218241.post-59105211926733779312012-01-11T11:19:00.966-05:002012-01-11T11:19:00.966-05:00Robin, this is just DARLING!

I remember how excited we all were when we got a touch dial instead of rotary - HYSTERICAL!!<br /><br />Now here we all are chatting/texting/tweeting on phones the size of a deck of cards.

I took typing on that style typewriter in high school, there were 2 styles of type...Pica or Elite...yes those were simpler times...things were so different. I have enjoyed your commentary..my children are in your age group...their children's lives are so different from when times were simpler.bsgstamps4fun: Barb Gaulthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00355834391463360841noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1322484680662218241.post-23435257992943263032012-01-11T08:56:35.536-05:002012-01-11T08:56:35.536-05:00I LOVE THIS CARD!
