Examples

I have a home phone number, and I like it! It's like a throwback already. Spike Jonze

Recently, I have come to assume that any call to my landline is from a telemarketer or an automated call from Terminex, letting me know that our regularly scheduled pest-extermination service will occur on its regular schedule. So I usually ignore my home phone. Susan Orlean
