Caught me so off-guard I had to do a double-take.
Normally when I pass by a pay-phone booth (by the way...for you youngsters out there...that's what this "thing" is), there's just an empty shell and the phone has been removed.
About a month ago I actually saw a man USING one! Can you BELIEVE that?!? I took a picture of him too but for the sake of his privacy I decided not to post it.
Seeing this today made me realize just how much things have changed. Back when I was a teenager, pay-phones were my lifeline when away from home. I used this to call my parents to let them know where I was, what time the movie would be over, and when to pick me up. It worked.
These days, finding a teenager without a cell phone would be about as rare as spotting a working pay-phone.
Yes indeed...times have surely changed.
So, Let the DIALOGUE begin: When was the last time YOU made a call from a pay-phone booth?
Talk to me (heck, CALL me if you have my number)!
Til next time...
