Funny the terms we use that don’t really have relevance to modern “phones”.

- ring, or ringtone (how many people remember phones with bell ringers)
- dialtone (how many remember rotary dials)
- hang up, or on/off hook
- drop a dime on someone
- talk, it’s your nickel

Well, OK, no one says the last two anymore.

  Splinters from texting are a bit annoying
