Things are going to start happening to me now...
Actually...wtf? seriously, we had a phone book dropped off at our front door today. As in a physical phone book.
So they really do still exist.
And yes, I looked up my name. I'm not in my local phone book; we've lived in this house for 5 years. And we still have a landline (well, through the cable company since it was cheaper to take the home phone service as a bundle than to do without the home phone).

Although I will say that in the late 90's I seriously thought about renting a U-Haul truck for a week and hogging all of the routes since at the time the company that was paying people to deliver them was paying $1 a book. That was when gas was $1 a gallon. Now if it's anything like the last time I inquired about it it's dropped all the way to $.20 or less each. fark that. At $1 a book though I would've probably busted the springs, shocks and the rest of the suspension on my car I had at the time just to deliver a shitload of them.
But they also tried giving me a route that would take me 30 minutes just to get to the area to begin delivery. So that made the profit margin far less appealing to me.
