I got this survival tip off a website. It was posted in 2008. Always carry some coins to make a phone call in case you get stranded.
It made me think of all those empty places where phones used to be. Some times they just leave the metal mounting panel in place, or the hanging phone book. Usually they strip everything off and just leave the bolt holes.
I just thought of a product concept. Pay-as-you-go phone vending. You would place the vending machines in the kinds of places where public phones used to be. The price point would be kind of steep for vending so it would have to have a credit card reader like a gas pump, but you could still pay with cash if you wanted to. I think it would take about 20lbs of quarters.
To maximize ROI the credit authorization would be made online via found WiFi. Each machine would have software to handing seeking and cracking.
It’s not a TARDIS, it’s the Mojave Phone Booth. Or maybe it’s the ghost of the Mojave Phone Booth. Now they’re in a ghost story oh hell the phone booth is here in the house!
there was a feature on “spark” this weekend on radio 1 that mentioned payphones derisively. they also cracked on people who ask for “the correct time” because *everyone* has a cellphone clock. ever since, i’ve been making a point of asking people for the correct time. no cellphone, no watch, no sundial for me.
i read about that phone booth in the desert in an Uncle John’s Bathroom Reader. used to be near a mine, then the mine ran dry and everyone left but they left the phone. i think its ben torn down now
BUT WHO WAS PHONE?
No, sorry, great comic, reminded me of something Kurt Vonnegut wrote in one of his novels, that after humanity had thoroughly conquered the earth and the solar system, only the human soul remained a terra incognia.

if someone says it’s a TARDIS, I will track them down and garrotte them with piano wire. It’s clearly not.

Should be the ghost of the mojave phone booth — it finally got taken down some years back.
The moral of this comic makes me sad.

This comic makes me happy. Does that make me bad?

For some reason I thought it was the ringing phone from The Adventures of Pete & Pete, despite the fact that it wasn’t ringing.
