I got a phone book delivered

You read that right.  It won't boost a toddler with how little it is but it did come with two nice magnets so 👍🏻.

 

If the milk man shows up next, high five! 🙌🏻

 

I am so cracking myself up with my immediate surroundings this past week.  

 

Ghost school kids, the yellow book appearing by my mailbox...is Johnny Carson on tonight? 🤣

Re: I got a phone book delivered

We get phone books delivered about twice a year.  Like yours very thin.  I cannot remember the last time I used one.

 

If the Milk man shows up, let me know.  I would love to have one.  I wonder if they are still a thing anywhere in America.

I get one every year.  You must be bored to post this.

Re: I got a phone book delivered

I hate when they do this!  People should not be allowed to dump stuff at your house if you don't ask for it.

 

More than once we've come back to town and found stuff piled on the porch.  Often it seemed most of the neighbors went out of town at the same time, so nobody was there to pick it up.

 

At least we have less of that now.

Really? I haven't gotten a phone book in at least 4-5 years!

@KingstonsMom Me too!  I thought someone had finally knocked on the printer's door and introduced them to Google.  I guess not.

I still get them on a regular basis.  I find the yellow pages are still helpful.

Darn it and I really was looking forward to my new set of encyclopedias!  Wrong salesman!

It's like walking into a time warp.....

 

Yep, in fact Johnny Carson is on--Woman Very Happy-Tribune Media's Antenna TV, the multicast digital channel devoted to vintage television shows, runs full-length episodes of “The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson” Weeknights 10p ET | 7p PT

I know what you mean about those Yellow Page Phone Books ---Hopefully that ended here last year because of complaints!  People would just throw them away or some neighbors just let them rot by their front door.....I guess businesses that advertise in it arent very smart---dont they realize people do not need phone books, dont want phone books, or don't even use them any more! anymore....SMH!!!
