@stewew : Whew, long time, no log in, LOL!! Well, back in the "good ol' days", the payphone only cost a dime to use, hence the reference to "miles of wire" (phone poles and cables) and "dimes of time" (so few minutes of talk time per ten cents). A truly epic classic.
@apoetalone : Yes, um... thank you. That was sorta my point. Ha ha! I guess sometimes my sarcasm doesn't translate too well in the printed word. Not only does a dime get you nowhere at a pay phone, the dang phones themselves are a thing of the past... at least out here in So Cal.
I agree whole-heartedly. I don't know about anyone else, but this is DEFINITELY one of those CD's I can pop in and listen to beginning to end. Thanx for the kind words mate, ^^
A classic song off a first rate album, go the Slab!!

one of the most underated bands of all time. it's too bad that the rest of the world isn't hip to this band.

How the fuck could mainstream music radio NOT get behind this band? The fact that they weren't bigger than they are is a fucking musical injustice!
