   Get talking caller id so you don’t have to squint at the screen or even walk over to the phone.

   A box on the TV screen shows the caller ID information when we get a call
   Comes in handy

   My phone has a call log, so I can call someone who called when I was out but didn’t leave a message—if I want to. But so far that situation hasn’t arisen!

   This strip looks like it was an old classic with updated props. The cordless phone probably used to be an old black bell phone where you had to physically dial the numbers. The joke doesn’t work today.

   It still works. I get accused of screening calls. I don’t. It’s just that my phone only rings when my wife calls. Everyone else has to leave a message; THEN the phone will alert me.

   Who cares…if important, they always call back.

   If their call isn’t important enough to leave a message, they shouldn’t have wasted their time calling me in the first place.

   Ralph, that’s good. If they hang up after only 4 rings, they were a telemarketer, so you didn’t miss out.
