A typical phonebook (image from holytaco)
According to a survey reported in this USA Today article, seven out of ten adults rarely ever use a phone book anymore. And why should they? With the Internet connecting computers, smartphones, and Moe the Hobo's tooth fillings, all the information is smack dab in your face. Often, advertisers shove this information in your face before you even want it. Even in a library setting, the only time I use a phone book is when I want to show a patron exactly how I am magically finding the answer.
Was this survey really necessary? I think it almost works as an expose on the phone companies in general. This shows that they are wasting money on a defunct reference material that while 20 years ago was a fixture right below the old rotary dialer was shoved aside the second everyone started sticking those weird flashing light things in their ears. If phone books stopped being published, the only people that would notice would be the companies themselves, as even most libraries have a redundant reverse directory often published by a different company. Viva la revolution! Down with the phone book!
Aside: I know that those weightlifter dudes who tear phone books for Jesus would also notice. But we have better books for them to tear. I am looking at you The Twilight Saga Complete Collection

If these books begin to sell well, I can only hope to find my way to a local liquor store and begin a slow decline of vile depravity that our nation seems to be embracing. Hell, I might even start reading and watching

, Ronald Reagan's son's book, Ronman's other son also is throwing in his two feces. Seems this book has a bunch of crap about how Ron Reagan has a fudgy memory about his father's Alzheimer's. What can I say about this? There is not much really happening in the world right now.
