I'll bet somewhere in her place there's a wringer washing machine, too. Must be a Pittsburgh thing, David. She also has the furniture that she got when she married in 1953 and it looks as new as it did the day she bought it.
It could be a Pittsburgh or a Penn Hills thing, Mary! I have the rotary phone, and I still have an 8-track player and tapes and those big round things called LPs. People here don't throw ANYTHING away. I do have one concession to the 21st century, an MP3 player! BTW, Mary what part of Pittsburgh did you live?
