3-4 years old is my first recollection of using a phone. My father was in
the Korean war and we stayed with grandma. I remember bits and pieces, but
more of what I was told by my mother. When the phone would ring, I would run
to answer in case it was my dad. No such luck. It was always the operator
making a connection. I do remember getting in trouble, because I would pick
it up on someone elses ring.

Just Google bASS and you will see that anything goes here in the newsgroup

about your age....It may only be 55 years.......

In that case, I guess that does make you much older than me.
