        For home phones and business. But I can’t name 3 people I know that have a home phone anymore, everyone has their own cell phone and they don’t list those. My condo building offers free home phone but I don’t want it, it’s just telemarketers now anyways.

        He’s talking about the olden days when anybody could be found in the phone book. And that’s all we had was a phone book. No internet. The olden days. You might not remember that because you might not have been born back then.
