I have a hobby/blog where when i am out on the road & see something that catches my eye, I stop shoot a pic or 2 and then work the photo into my blog. Phone booths, pay phones etc are one of them, I chuckled when I read about having a quarter. I remember it being a dime :-) (showing my age) I am working my blog today & needed help in titles,John Lovehttp://www.lovesphotoalbum.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785534973535089478.post-65528808253068529182013-05-22T07:12:40.026-05:002013-05-22T07:12:40.026-05:00This phone booth is at Lake Livingston Texas.

I didn't realize they could smell so bad, be used as hooker escape routes, or cause so much neurosis.

If you ever came across a phone booth that some drunk hadn't used as a urinal then you felt really lucky. <br /><br />Of course, the biggest bummer about the demise of the phone booth is that it has really hurt hookers. The girls could pretend to be on the phone in case any police happened to drive by. Poor girls don't have that Jayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17134850383532818765noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1785534973535089478.post-87270284040755738282010-08-27T08:16:47.398-05:002010-08-27T08:16:47.398-05:00Vince: I had blanked the memory of the smell out o...Vince: I had blanked the memory of the smell out of my head but you are so right.
