I do see one when I go in my garage. I've got a phone booth out there but I don't think that counts. I've got to hook that thing up one of these days.
Well , If you broke down you could always dig behind the seat for some change or dial 0 and call collect ! Or when you were traveling you could call collect and the operator would ring the # you wanted and say "Bob" is calling collect from Jacksonville and dad would refuse the call but he got the message we were in Jacksonville ! Breaking the law , Breaking the law
