Sorry, Those of you who have seen Steve Martin in "The Jerk" will remember this line. Today as I walked from my apartment complex mailboxes with my brand spankin' new CHL license in hand, I wanted to shout "The new phonebooks are here! The new phonebooks are here!" But then I remembered what happen to Steve Martin in "The Jerk" right after he did that. A sniper started taking shots at him. So I kept it quiet as I walked back to my apartment with my envelope from the TX DPS in hand.
Now for my Wally Walk...

Whoohoo! 42 days from mailbox to mailbox :anamatedbanana :hurry: :clapping:

I hold onto 'phone books, especially the 'real' Yellow Pages'. Many have notations of defunct/current contact mumbers, Technician, contact information, who-what-when-where, charges, and passable work or not.

The other directories get recycled. Some after getting wet and catchcing a few rounds.
