The phone. A majestic peice of equipment. It is only a machine, but we think
|
||
of it as our friend. Yes, it is our friend. It all started many years ago,
|
||
with a crazy old chap named Alex. He sort of put the whole sha-bang to gether.
|
||
Well anyway, it was a groovey invention and has led to those numerous calls to
|
||
the Disneyland Pay Phone. We all know that one can benefit from the friendship
|
||
incorporated with one of those cheap little 99 cent jobbies at K-mart. In this
|
||
fine "Phoney" Phile, I have put together a collection of poetic Phoneaphenelia.
|
||
|
||
There once was a phone named Fred
|
||
Who occasonally said:
|
||
"You have dialed a number to which
|
||
long distance charges apply."
|
||
It scared me, oh my!
|
||
I met with a group of Spock's
|
||
Who gave me a little black box
|
||
They thought me how to "phreak"
|
||
by letting the box give a squeek
|
||
But soon it was over
|
||
Said my fuffy dog, Rover
|
||
Some men came to the door
|
||
And engaged in a dreadful chore.
|
||
They locked me up in a little cell,
|
||
it wasnt bad exept for the smell
|
||
It kind of reminds me of my box
|
||
As I sit examining these iron locks

Every child needs a phone
|
||
so he wont feel so alone
|
||
It helps them get in touch
|
||
with info and such
|
||
|
||
- Dr. Joyce Brothers
|
||
|
||
|
||
I dial the number to a local board
|
||
and check my little software hoard
|
||
I am really out of my gourd
|
||
as I forgot to plug in the cord!

A good sex aid can be the phone
|
||
providing you use your bone
|
||
but remember to grunt and groan
|
||
Because telephone sex I dont condone!
|
||
|
||
- Dr. Ruth Westhiemer
|
||
|
||
|
||
Here sit high and stoned
|
||
thinking of the 10 meg I phoned
|
||
I'm so stoned I cant ryme
|
||
so go away.
|
||
|

- Stanley Stoner
|
||
|
||
|
||
And so you see, the phone is
|
||
poetic, the phone is magnetic.
|
||
I like to believe that there is a
|
||
little phone inside each and every one
|
||
of us. Goodnight, and have your pet
|
||
spayed or neutered.
