Robbie and Bobby by Jason Poland for October 03, 2018

The phonebook is still useful! I’m using one right now to stabilize a wobbly sofa.

Target practice.

I used to look forward to getting a new telephone book. Not so much anymore.

The phone book’s been getting really unfavorable critical reviews. Lots of characters, but no plot.

It is not a tiny step-stool. It is a phone-book.

I always keep the new one sitting around and don’t recycle it until I get the next one. I’m not sure why, probably because I’m old.

It still can be used for a young child to sit on at the dinner table. I used it (and magazines) to elevate my furniture off the floor during Hurricane Irma.

I actually use it for its intended purposes occasionally…but what I really like are the magnets that come glued to the front cover. They’re great for gluing to the backs of pictures to hang on the fridge.

Actually the recycling guidelines for our town say ‘no phone books’.
