Perhaps a miscommunication of sorts? Great shot!

thanks so much, everyone...

fotologica, your comment (as it very often does) made me laugh... :)
i guess there is a similarity to those bricklike early mobile phones, but how fast we forget what actual nonmobile phones look like...

Reminds me of a shot from The Matrix. The phone-booth as Trinity takes the call and begins to disapear from the Matrix, the agent fires his gun and the bullet slices the line in two. I imagine it falling to the ground and looking something like this, shattered glass and debri around. The green of the Matrix ebbing in the background.

Seeing this image and figuring out its title, immediately made me think of that old Public Enemy song, "911 is a Joke".
Kind of funny...well, maybe just to me.

This pic popped out of a set of 110 thumbnails. No mean feat. You should add this to the Simple Life of Everyday Objects group --it'd pop there too.

[Phone rings..Clink of receiver being lifted]
"Hello..?"
"Yes, a collect call for Mrs. Floyd from Mr. Floyd.
Will you accept the charges from United States?"
[clunk! of phone being put down]
"Oh, He hung up! That's your residence, right? I wonder why he hung up?
Is there supposed to be someone else there besides your wife there to answer?"
[Phone rings again...clunk of receiver being picked up]
"Hello?"
"This is United States calling, are we reaching...
[interrupted by phone being put down]
"See he keeps hanging up, and it's a man answering."

i saw that photo one time and went on with clicking, but never forgot that. was so sad i could not find when i looked for. after some hours and days i found it now. this photo is great! it's one of my favourites because it shows that abandonement always means the disconnection from the rest of the running world, here the cutted cord. thank you Claudine!
