They said Sirius satellite radio would kill FM radio. That was 20 years ago.

Antenna TV playing reruns with no news, no actors to pay is pretty cheap to run. As long as they have advertisers, we’ll still have it.

Common sense disappeared at least 30 years ago. Newspapers are the living dead. CNN and MSNBC...with ratings below the Cartoon Network advertisers should have long since abandoned them. They are on life support with likely help from the CCP and George Soros

If she buys a book, she has to get rid of one our books in our 3 bookcase library.

That is cruel and unusual punishment. Just get another bookcase.

To STEAL a legit fax? Yeah, I’m not talking about that. But you can append caller-ID, legally if you’ve received permission from the person you claim is sending the fax.

Maybe the audiences should also be CGI.

One of my favorite films. Can’t imagine the book cover looking like that though.

I wish printers would go away but they will always exist in some form.

Printers are evil incarnate and a tool of the devil.

Cashless is the wave of the future.

I'm prepared, never carry more than a $20. I don't know what a 50 looks like :)

The good thing about cashless is that bums no longer as for money because they know people don’t have cash.

Pretty soon they'll be forced to work for food. Like me.

Saw James Taylor a couple nights ago, impressive band with Gadd;

Stephen Kendall Gadd (born April 9, 1945[1]) is an American drummer, percussionist, and session musician. Gadd is one of the most well-known and highly regarded session and studio drummers in the industry, recognized by his induction into the Modern Drummer Hall of Fame in 1984.[2] Gadd's performances on Paul Simon's "50 Ways to Leave Your Lover" and "Late in the Evening" and Steely Dan's "Aja" are examples of his style. He has worked with popular musicians from many genres including Simon & Garfunkel, Steely Dan, James Taylor, Harry Chapin, Joe Cocker, Grover Washington Jr., Chick Corea, Lee Ritenour, Paul Desmond, Kate Bush, Chet Baker, Al Di Meola, Kenny Loggins, Eric Clapton, Michel Petrucciani, and Toshiki Kadomatsu.

A fellow New Yorker :)

WOW, love those 70’s jazz bands. They have considerably more talent than ours in HS playing the age of Aquarius among others.

5. The Land Line Telephone Unless you have a large family and make a lot of local calls, you don’t need it anymore. Most people keep it simply because they’ve always had it. For the extra service, you’re paying double. All the cell phone companies will let you call customers using the same cell provider for free.

In Hurrican country you can lose power for a week but your landline phone will still work - and doesn't have to be charged. That's a great reason to keep the stripped down version-(no long distance) just local calls. Then use your cellphone for everything else.
