Looks Good on Paper by Dan Collins for July 11, 2023

We have a large park in the City, and standing next to a trail is a working pay-phone. Tourists, especially young people stop and take pictures of it on their smartphones. Some don’t know what to make of it!!

Isn’t that the star of Doctor Who?

Just an observation. Back in the day, a good chunk of the shows and movies we watched were set in the past. Westerns, WW2, or Jazz Age gangsters. People picked up history by osmosis. Today there’s plenty of science fiction, but I can’t think of one TV Western

The booth enclosures must have been a waste of money for all those decades. Obviously, by the way people openly yak on their cells, people don’t care if everybody can hear their half of the conversation. And why did Mr. Kent jump into one to take off his street clothes, with the glass walls and all?

what’s more surprising is they are’nt staring at their own phones

Oh man – do I feel old now .

and what’s a quarter?

I see a lot of these on construction sites and outdoor concerts…never seen one with glass doors though.

What?! You’ve never heard of Superman? Where do you think that he changes clothes?

Cell phone generation!

Grimm knows what its good for.

I know! I know!

You might need another technology you’re probably not familiar with – coins.

Superman’s portable changing room.

its a time machine, one of the newer models also known as a TARDIS. TimeAndRelative DimensionIn Space

About 15 years ago, I was in an amusement park with my wife and daughter. When I saw a pay phone, I did take a picture of it. I identified it in my photo album as a leftover relic of the 20th century.

Hint: it’s labeled.

Where is the help page and instructions?
