Reminds me of the good old days of Ma Bell.

how many sundays in a month I thought there were 4 sometimes 5 not a month of them

Guys, you need the string to be taut… what I remember about doing this back in the day is that the can, no matter how we cleaned it out, still had the smell of green beans in it…

See? We did too have mobile phones in our day.

Why all Sunday strips lately?

Please hold the line…

…tighter.

Try tying a string to your iPhone.

Americans discussing politics. :-D

“Don’t know why you say goodbye, I say hello…”

Who plays with those anymore when you can get a smartphone for $1,000?

That is fun. So is building telegraphy sets and communicating room to room, building to building, block to block, etc.

Back in the 1940’s I had a string phone from our house to the one next door. My teen age girl friend and I both had our bedrooms on the second floor of our houses which were about 100 ft. apart. If we were able to keep the string taut reception was surprisingly good.

Did the cans-and-string actually work?

It doesn’t work unless the string is taut, something routinely ignored in the representations I’ve seen of “tin can and string”. (Does the can need to be tin?)
