No Tones About It…
Ain’t got no tones,
No about it bones,
Wish I had a few clones,
My tone today done off on my phones…
Had my tone at three o’clock in the mornin’,
By 8 am gone were they, I was a’mournin’,
No place to post, no way to read, couldn’t they have given me a warnin’?
Phone company says, “you are not turned off!”
I had to, although, even with their being honest, scoff…
You can check it yourself,
With screw driver and jack,
Did this I did, still no service in my shack,
Will come betwixt 8am and 8pm,
Gotta sit here and write but not enter,
Addicted I definitely am, that addiction, this computer…

Love Tinka
My phone kept shorting out, every time it rained, and the good old phone company kept insisting the short was inside my house - I kept insisting it wasn't. After 27 painful exchanges, I finally got someone to come out, and the short was a tiny frayed piece of wire - outside my house, of course.
Welcome Back!
(((HUGS))) and much love, your (phone-less) texas friend, karen lynn. :D
