Remember the days when you had to pay extra monthly charges for each phone in your house?

Ma Bell called me at least once a day trying to get me to buy that extra phone. One over-achiever kept telling me how badly I needed a phone in my bedroom. She finally said, "Look, you're in the bedroom asleep, and when you wake up, you realize there is a murdering maniac in the kitchen, standing next to the phone. Now what?"

Told her he could use the phone in the kitchen, same as everyone else.

She had the good grace to laugh, and give up.
