“you’re prolly the only one in brooklyn who still has a landline telephone!”
I also have a landline and I’m MUCH younger than Pete.

Hello everyone. As CGar mentioned, I’m now on the trading floor (heretofore referred to as The Dungeon) at The Death Star and disgruntled for many reasons, not the least of which is the fact my boss switched seats with me and he now shares a desk with a cute Asian woman. Just when I was learning to be able to tolerate him…
Had a fantastic cruise with The Champs. Was a big day for us all yesterday: Mrs. C started a new job after 8 years out of the workplace (she said she loves going to work; go figure), the Champs had their first day at school and I moved to The Dungeon. Will post when I can. Will try to keep B’oner on the second screen and minimize the screen to eliminate the ads (thanks to DH for that tip).
Someone from the other firm with whom we share offices brought in this box of the most ginormous cupcakes I’ve ever seen….from Harvest bakery in central Islip. The box is about 12″ x 24″ and has 12 cupcakes in it…one is a “black & white” frosting.
It’s a shame that people can’t say anything about public employees without someone labeling it “hating”. The truth is that many of them are over paid. Period. The government is also hiding the liablities related to public employees. If governments (local, state, and federal) funded their pensions and healthcare like they’re supposed to they would all be bankrupt.
I’d be more sold on getting rid of landline – if cell phone reception were as good. But there is always problems, delays, which gets worse if people have different carriers.
i agree bxgirl, i really dont get the hatred for public employees. so they get some good perks, so what? some of you make it seem like they are living some kind of beverly hills lifestyle. they are not. well maybe some politians, but they are a different breed of disgusting.
bedgruding someone like a garbage man who comes and picks up your dirty condoms twice a week is just wrong. or getting mad a lady cop. who ARE you going to call when your significant other punches you in the nose!?!

lech i think your wife is right. i think it’s necessary to have a landline too if you have kids. for the time being anyway.

Rob, I see you are an equal opportunity victim of discrimination.
