Oh, those innocent days…

Oh, those innocent days before caller ID!!! We
lived in fear of the dreaded “traced” phone call;
never fully understanding that the recipient
had to have their phone set up to “trace” calls
and due to how connections were made it
would have required us staying on the line for
over 3-4 minutes! Never long enough for our
favorite queries…(to a drug store),,,”Do you
have Prince Albert in a can???…Well then you
had better let him out!” Or calling someone
(identifying yourself as the ‘appliance
repairman’)…”Is your refrigerator
running?…Well, then you had better go catch
it!!”
Anyone else remember these or other phone
jokes??? Or am I dating myself???!!!
