Trying to tax my brain a bit. What is "dial-up"??? "Dial up" like in trying to get on the internet via the phone lines... getting that squeaky noise and taking forever to get online?
Or is it like back in the olden days when you'd DIAL UP a business and talk to a REAL person????
That dial-up stuff.....definitely the olden days.
