My Old Phone

I'm spending the night at my parent's house tonight, sleeping in my
old bedroom. It looks almost exactly as it did when I was growing up.

On the wall next to my bed hangs my old telephone. It has big, huge
buttons that always made dailing quickly easy. I won many a radio
contest calling in from this phone - and that was long before the days
of speed-dailing! ;)

I just noticed a switch on the side of the phone that I had forgotten
about: it lets you choose between "pulse" or "tone".

How's that for old-school?

I doubt I could find anyone under the age of 35 who would know what a
pulse dial is.
