-look something up in an encyclopedia
-pay phones
-Call long distance and talk for 30 seconds so you don't need a second mortgage
How much longer you think those will last?
And then having the DJ screw it up by talking over the intro or cutting in before the song ended!
My first car (1960 Olds 98) not only had an am radio, but it had tubes, so it took 2 or 3 minutes to warm up before it would start playing. On the upside, it had the "Wonder Bar", which scanned to the next strongest station without touching the dials. Cool thing was, you could also activate it via a switch on the floorboard next to the dimmer switch for the lights (remember dimmer switches on the floor?). I had a lot of fun messing with people by just pointing at the radio and changing stations (they woudn't be paying attention to what my left foot was doing).
Pushing a button on the floorboard with your foot to dim or brighten your headlights.
