You were naughty Adnohr, How strange we always think the worst when the telephone rings. Perhaps it is a throwback to telegrams, of course you may not remember. The sealed note that usually brought bad news.

How very interesting.
You know, I had long forgotten about the party lines of my youth.  We were one of four parties.  We knew them all and two of the party lines had teenage boys.  That made it interesting for us girls.

I did not know about such a service. I imagine that is a benefit to many deaf people.

I used to get calls like that from a deaf student when I worked at

the university's housing office. It is strange the first time, and also interesting.
