Do you sometimes get frustrated by how hard it is to find a regular old incandescent light bulb these days? Do your fingers itch for a big ol’ paper map when you’re lost and looking to get found again? Do you miss phones that hang on the wall and don’t drop your calls? Hand-written letters sent through the mail? Cars with reliable crank windows and built-in cigarette lighters? A a good-ol’ manual typewriter — no computer training necessary? Technological progress has kicked a lot of familiar and dependable items to the curb. If you find yourself occasionally hankering for some of those things, we’d like to hear about it. Send your thoughts on things you long for to writer Mark LaFlamme at [email protected]. Or snail mail Mark LaFlamme c/o Sun Journal, 64 Lisbon St., Suite 201, Lewiston, Maine 04240.
