We realize not everyone can throw away their cellphones, but we approve of this list because it reminds us of a time, long, long ago….

A time when people called you, and if you didn’t pick up, it meant that you were something called “not home.”

Remember “not home”? As in, “Oh, they didn’t pick up. They must not be home.”

We have to stop, we’re getting too nostalgic.
