    Ah, yes! Back when phones had dials and "Ma Bell" WAS the ONLY game in town! Or the whole country. Back when Jackie Kennedy married Aristotle Onassis. I remember the joke:
    "Q. What can Jackie's kids do that nobody else can? A. Jackie's kids can kiss their Onassis!"

    Actually, the one which has considered her best, is the one with "Cher" which to me is #1, don't know why that is not listed in the top 10, maybe they didn't consider it as top 10, but maybe in the Hall of Fame. People pull up the one with Cher, it is hilarious.

    Ernestine was my Sisters FAV. My Sister started with SNET when she was 18 at the New Haven "Snake Pit". She just loved this woman's portrayal. She often said she was the Youngest retiring employee, and could have retired years earlier but for her age. Must be good show, First Commercial Break at ONE Minute. Very Interesting, but too many commercial breaks bye.

    Never a fan - a bit corny, but to each its own. However, the one line I loved ❤ when I originally heard it back in the day was “We are the telephone company, we don’t have to care!” How true it was... classic.
    However, now looking back, the Bell phone company was a goddess of quality service technicians in contrast to the egregious gross embarrassment of pretend customer service at COMCAST, a gold plated flaming joke! How fast can we leave you in disrepair is the pass the buck game. Think about it, a phone bill was $20 back in the day. The phone company came out the same or next day and the techs fixed the issue. COMCAST is charging you way over $100 a month. Makes you wait for five days or more to get a pretend tech who can’t help, no amplifier in my truck (3rd tech actually has the part). Zero brand loyalty. I will celebrate the day I cord cut! 5G?
