Then I thought I would show just how bad the addiction to phones can get. I have two 20 foot containers on the farm and two 40 foot at the business plus a barn and old house full of old phone parts. Quit now while you are ahead.

My property is on a hillside. So to get the best view, they put the house at the top of the property. This sounds ok until you realize that all your stuff has to go in the front yard, since there is no backyard to speak of. For obvious reasons my wife also doesn't want me to get a container either.
