@much2say These cars are alright, but they are considered to pollute too much, and they are forbidden in large cities like Paris, except during weekends... for the moment : after January 1st, a sticker will be needed on the car for Paris and a few other cities, and they will not be given for old cars, so a 28 years old car will not be able to enter anymore without risking a ticket. It is unfair for people having no money to buy a more recent car.

You're such a hipster 
Btw if you were truly old school, you'd have one of those original mobile phones that required a backpack to carry them about

Buying/selling stolen goods is big business round here, people shoplift and then visit local pubs touting their wares

Used to have a suitcase mobile...for a minute...almost...until I found out it was stolen and I told the guy trying to sell it to me to get out of my house and don't come back again

You seem to already know what I have been preaching to the world "It is not how much we have but what we make of what we have is the route to happiness"
Welcome to the world of happy people

I hadn't looked until you mentioned it, but yer correct.
I believe we get 170 characters for the preview...it makes it a bit tricky if I am trying to 'hide' what the discussion is really about.

I have graduated from a flip phone to a smart phone. I drive a one year old van....I watch VHS movies. I wind my mantel clock once a week. I hang my clothes on the clothesline to dry. I make most of my meals from scratch....I'm old fashioned, but not afraid of technology..I am technologically challenged .

I don't care for 'smart' phones...if they were that smart, I wouldn't be getting calls from people accidentally.
Since I am one of those that prefers a phone simply as a device to make calls with, I had been wanting to get another flip phone for a few years.

@JolietJake I guess I'd be impressed (or not) if I knew what closed captionning was.

Sounds perfect to me, why do people like all that complicated stuff? The sad thing is when ever I try to live the simple life, people tell me I am not thinking big enough and not using all my full potential. Hey jackasses., you live your life and I will live mine. All complicated ever gave me was a headache.

Love vinyl records, love the bits of static and such. My van is 21 years old and going strong. My sons will answer texts but rarely phone calls, so I did have a smart phone, wasn't so darn smart in my opinion. So I went back to a new old school cell phone with a physical keyboard, but would much rather have a flip phone, it's just to hard to text. I have a ton of VHS but no machine.

One of my most favorite characters in television series. I drive a truck that is 18 yrs old, but I bought a car earlier this year for commuting back and forth to work that is 2 yrs old. I got rid of all the vinyl records and VHS tapes before moving to Colorado almost 3 yrs ago. I haven't had a flip phone in years, but my husbands personal phone is a flip phone, which he swears by. I think back to when I was growing up and think times were so much simpler and even though it was a struggle people seemed happier. The good old days.

Hey those old VHS tapes are a real treasure. While I have a working player I watch my favorites over and over and really enjoy myself. No car here we cannot afford one now, Just a plain old mobile and yes, life is really good.
