        Ah, but I wear my grandfather's watch. No batteries. It's self-winding. A relic, but I love it.

        I have a watch from a great grandfather rewarded him on his retirement from the Oto and Ronca Indian reservation agency in 1898. It doesn't work but has a very thin gold plating on one side so is probably worth $50. However I would not sell it for $50,000.

        With everyone listening to our cell phone calls the “party line” is right on target.

        Or tell them not to call before nine. It's cheaper at night.

        When my dad worked out of town, he would call collect and ask for himself. It was a free call to let my mom know he was on his way home. I was very confused when I answered the phone once :)

        Just thinking yesterday how we used to go out of town and call home collect to let mom know we arrived safe. As planned, mom would refuse the call so there were no charges, but she knew we arrived safely

        How about instead of going to the movies on Friday night, you pick up the phone and listen to the neighbors.
