(10,237 posts)2. I miss those old Bell Systems rental phones
you could drive nails with them ,use them to stir soup and then they would replace them no questions asked .
You knew when you talked too long on the phone ,your arm and neck hurt ,your ear was numb and you couldn't move past the length of phone cord .
