That link doesn't work, I'll have to look it up later at home, but isn't he the "Blue Velvet" singer?

And.. umm.. I don't send love letters through the mail I guess?

And don't get me wrong, I've def. heard the term before, but never really thought about it's origins, or that it actually meant something.


As far as the cologne debate, I think AXE body spray is in time responsible for the killing of that term. It's easier to spray yourself than dab some cologne on your hands and rub it on you.


And what about a party line? That's one you don't hear nowadays, and I personally never heard of it until I started reading some of Emily Dickinson's short stories in my college Literature class.

Similar to total phone (kinda.. I guess).
