“Walkie-hearies”… like that’ll catch on.

Get the semaphore flags; she’ll never hear you when you tell her you found them.

Sure, a nice ring, but the people who need them can’t appreciate it.

Hearing loss is one of the most frustrating things to have as people get irritated when they have to repeat, as it is not an obvious thing. I applaud you guys with that affliction dealing with it.

Opal will not care what Nelson calls them as long as she gets them back!

“I dig a pygmy by Charles Hawtrey on the deaf-aids”

When I was a kid we had “Walkie-Talkies”….

“walkie-talkies” belong to to green stamp generation….

Uh oh! Will Earl tell Nelson to give them to Opal or will he just enjoy watching her look for them….Will he move his lips with no sound to drive her crazy? LOL

Be careful with them, they cost about $6000 – $8000 and a lot of insurance companies won’t cover the cost.

Still waiting for Bose the market their hearing aids you can adjust yourself.

A “walkie-hearie” is about the only thing I haven’t needed…so far.

Microamps.

No, actually it DOESN’T have any kind of “nice ring to it” at all.

(Sound of static) “Over”…

Since I’m just about to the point where I need them, I’m glad to have a different term to use to name them!

When my daughter was 5 years old, she called a backhoe a “shovel-bucket.” Actually more appropriate.

@TEMPLO S.U.D. “Walkie-hearies”… like that’ll catch on.

In a parallel universe(s) maybe if it can happen at all in some set of universes it will. Most won’t.

Good one. Most folks have phones that are walkie-talkies for sure.
