The husband just called me and told me that they've discontinued popcorn. At first I thought he was nuts because how can anyone discontinue a food found everywhere. That would be like trying to discontinue hamburgers or something.
And then he explained that it was the phone number. Ahhhhhhh! I know that at least in Northern California, when you would call 767-xxxx (or POPCORN or any POPxxxx) you would get the time. I remember being fascinated by this as a kid and called all the time. I did this less so as an adult, but still called every once in a blue moon.
Now I will never hear that lady's voice again announcing the time. And that kind of depresses me.
