FoxTrot Classics by Bill Amend for February 28, 2017

I bet Fred is having difficulty getting ahold of Roger too; his daughter must be phoning “American Idol” too.

Never saw the show. So there’s more beeps than calling a simple phone number would need. Are the viewers doing some sort of rating on what they saw? How does this work?

I believe voters phoned in for their favorites to advance. I thought I read that, at the height of its popularity, a show would get more U.S. citizens voting than in most national elections.

And now it has.

Phone on the wall.. How quaint.

I remember when TV signals were wireless and telephone signals came through a cable in the wall.
