You got me. Bout put a tear in me eye. We called her Mamaw. Not real common even back in my day.
Just to edjekate ya. A party line was used mostly in the country and was shared among a few neighbors. Only 1 call at the time could be made. If someone called you all phones at all homes would ring but if it double ringed or single ringed would determine who should answer. Think there was a few different ring patterns. Neighbors would tell each other when they left home so they could answer for you and they knew by the ring who the call was for. All this technology from a rotary phone usually hanging on a wall close to the kitchen.
thatssome good learning everyone right there....i fergat about some of that....
Yeah, we had three party line growing up in Westover. My Dad would be expecting a call and the Burneys down the road had a farm and three teenage girls who stayed on the phone. Growing up, I thought their name was "Damn Burney Girls". The other home had an old lady who listened in - she was our own little Mrs. Kravitz.
Mine was bigmama, and God knows I loved her but she was one mean bitch.
Yes
I give up.
I was just kidding with you. I haven’t heard anything that you could call official, or even semi-official about any OSU players specifically. If anyone has information, I would like to hear it. It’s at that stage where I start to get extremely nervous about the game.

The way it work here was, that you call someone. You would let it ring twice. Then hang up , when it stop ringing is when you would pick up.
