My grandchildren are appalled.

(146,218 posts)so I have to have a mobile, but I wish I didn't.
I think you can get phones with actual dials that will work. Maybe a yard sale?

BTW: Consumer Cellular is great -- for seniors. $10.00/month standard fee...calls are additional. The phone is sooooooo basic...it's just phone and that is all I want!

(444 posts)TV channels with the remote, looking for a show that appealed to him, I said, "When I was your age televisions had thing called knobs on them and people would have to get up, walk to the TV and turn a knob to change the channel or adjust the volume."
He looked at me with a puzzled look and said, "No they didn't!!"
LOL
He just couldn't believe that tale.
