Many people have gone to nothing but a cell phone for their phone now. My family all has their own cell phones so I saw no need to keep the house phone. Do you have a home phone? Do you own a cell phone?

Our phone has a speaker built-in with it. Sometimes we use it if the call is urgent and needs to be heard by the whole family. Sometimes we use it to eavesdrop when a prank caller drops by. Our phone is a Siemens model and is...
