Speaking with Gummo, the Balloon Boy, yesterday during his daily verbal therapy, we discussed a range of topics: needless insignificant trivia, the recent passing of Don Kershner (let's see how many of our 2 faithful readers know that name!), the legalities of driving while talking on a cell phone, etc. The cell phone issue is a hot topic as the Latex Kid recently got a new smart phone and is utterly baffled by it's operation. Wishing to revert to the simpler model he had been using so successfully earlier, he has scoured all of the phone stores to locate a model with no luck. Technology has simply passed the point from which his old one operated. Yes, I understand the new phones are a bit more complicated. Yes, I know that they have a shorter battery life, but honestly, walking around with the backpack model that looked like the one used from the radioman of the old 60's
Rat Patrol TV series probably would interfere with most daily activities.
Never the less, as a service to a friend in need, I am posting a picture of the preferred model of choice. I urge both of our faithful readers to scour their attics, basements, and dead grandfathers WWII belongings to see if they have a comparable model. If so, please contact us here at FTI for placement to a grateful individual. It would mean so much.
Say it aint so!! Bob and I first made out while Don Kershner's Rock Concert was on the telly. It became our weekend ritual. Just so sad.
ReplyDeleteAs for the phone...I will scour the Oklahoma plains for y'all. Ya just never know.
