Who still remembers their childhood home phone number?

Yep. I don't think I could forget it. My parents never moved while I was growing up. They bought the house several years before I was born and my mom finally sold it 6-7 years ago. I think she owned it like 35 or so years in total.
 
Ha, well, considering my parents still live there...and I do call my parents like a good son should...yup, I remember it.

Umm youre forgetting that alot of these people STILL live in their childhood homes... See the age poll!!

 
My parents still have the same number so yeah, I still remember. Now who still remembers the homeroom for elementary school?? Mine was A148. It's forever burned into my memory since I repeated it so many times two days before the school year because I was afraid that I would forget where to go when school started. At least I managed to get my locker combination out of my head.

I honestly don't even think my elementary school had room numbers...just teachers names over the doors. Of course, there were only about 13 rooms in the place (including office, kitchen, gym, and library), so it wasn't really that big of a deal.

I agree on the high school locker combo thing...I still knew it a decade or so ago, but now it's gone.
 
Yes. It's 2423. A party line, so it's long-short rings. Two short rings is the Humberts next door, short-long is Mrs. Selvey behind us. Mrs. Humbert is ALWAYS on the phone listening. So, to make a call we pick up the phone and say, I need to make a call. She'll hang up for a minute and then pick up again.

Also, there is an operator. If Mrs. Humbert wasn't on the phone, the operator would pick up and say number please.

That was when i was a child. In high school it got automated. Area code, local code, 2423, long-short.
 
452-2132
Started off as 617 > 508 > 978. We had that number since we moved to Lowell in '78. Lost it when we moved about 10 years ago though.

My locker combo was easy: Jiggle handle and kick. Every locker in the school could be opened that way, regardless of the type of lock put on it.
