Wow! Even for Charlie Brown, that’s pretty bad.

Read the phone book.

Rotary dials. By the time you get the number dialed you forgot who you were calling.

Enjoy the lonliness while you can Charlie Brown. You have a sister coming up in the years ahead.

Another favorite!

Once upon a time there was an ugly barnacle he was so ugly that everyone died the end

ONCE UPON A TIME Bell Labs made a Little Switchboard so good boys and girls could talk to each other. Bell hired a Down on Her Luck Woman to operate the Little Switchboard and answer any and all inane requests callers presented her with. She was also given a Book which told her how to work the Little Switchboard. Before activing the power supply, ensure all valves are in good working condition and replace any that shows signs of imminent failure…

Well, I used those telephones, but the ones I used had a chord which connected the phone with the horn. The one Charlie uses must be an advanced model.

best way to pass the time.

His parents aren’t going to like their phone bill.

The old days, with Ernestine the operator.
