Those seconds before the first ring were intense. Should I hang —.
Too late.
Okay two rings. three.
“Hello?”
Joseph A.
Hope dwindled with that sound. The dial tone was like a death sentence. Cannons sounded louder. I could barely bring myself to hold the phone to my face. I drop it, numbly and turn to look at myself in the mirror.

The dial tone sounded like bells in a church in my ear. I clutched the receiver. Had it really only been four years? It felt like millions. Slowly, I pull the reciever from my face and stare at it. I dial the phone.

We’ve seen this word before
as it mocks us
the dial tone blares
quietly from the phone
in my hand
i know better than to touch it
i don’t want to hear your voice
it sounds like machines
it sounds like paper
it sounds like you hung up again
the dial tone hums.

It was night. A dark night. Damned phone! It rang.
I answered. Nobody was on the line.
I am going to dial the police number. Damn.
Valeria
I dial, you dial, we all used to dial. One day we won’ dial at all and it will just be thoughts.
Remember when dialing meant rotary phones, then keys, now touch. Dialing is going away.

Terry didn’t know wheter to dial the number or not. It was like the pill on the matrix – if she took one she could never go back. It would change her life. Or would it. She was only looking at it in one way. What if she was wrong? She coudln’t be could she? She coulndn’t doubt herself now, it was too late, too much was at stake.

I pick up the phone and dial. Dial a number new, a number that’s burned in my brain. Dial a number I’ve known forever. Sometimes dialing can be a painful process. With every number hit, you know what will be on the other end.

dial m for murder. dial t for treason. dial x for xmas. dial r for radio waves. dial d for dial.

it was difficult to dial the phone. jerry had only ever seen pushbutton phones and to be met with one that he had to actually dial threw him off. how much was he supposed to dial? could he take a number back if he got it wrong?
Jeff
just make a call. i mean, how much effort could that take. man, don’t call verizon. you’ll get that freaky phone-bot lady that pretends to say “umm” and “ahh” as if she were thinking. I really can’t stand that. it’s somewhat unsettling too. should my intelligence be insulted that they think I’ll think it’ll make her sound real? wow. not sure what else I can say about “dial”

the phone number. If you don’t dial then the result will never happen. You’ll just continue sitting in the darkness that is loneliness. Or you could have the time of your life.

The thing you turn. I like to turn it as far as I can to test it’s limits. I tend to evaluate if changing the dial matches what happens in the real world. Dialing in is fun. Dialing out is complicated (pesky ‘9’)

Only the oldfashioned phones have dials instead of buttons. But today’s keypads are missing the tactile satisfaction of making the dial turn, then watching it move back to zero all by itself.

I dialed your number again. Why do I do this to myself? Ring. Everytime, I know there won’t be an answer. Ring. But I wait. Ring. I want you to know what I am thinking. Ring. Why aren’t you picking up? Ring. Why did you abandon me? Ring. Why? “Hi, you have reached…” I knew it. Click.

Telephones used to have dials. It took longer to call someone, but the effort made the trip more worthwhile.

dial is a form of communication…
We dial to be in touch with our near and dear ones.

The soap company that makes chocolate as well is called Dial. I think I may dial them on my telephone machine to ask them what is the deal with that and when I can expect to see some chocolate flavored soap. I think there has been far too long of a delay on that concept.

to call someone by pushing buttons, the word starts with a d. there is a soap brand with the name of: “Dial” this is a boring word/name.

The phone in the hallway rang sharply; it had been years and years since David had even seen a phone hanging on a wall. Everyone had cell phones, and this was so anachronistic, and the sound was odd.

Dial the phone. Someone will answer. If not, voice mail happens and then the fun game of voice mail tag clicks in.

no matter how hard she tried to press the buttons it seemed as if her fingers would not work. Her hands shook, and her breaths came in ragged spurts.
It was here again, this oppressive feeling like a weight in her lungs, on her chest.

The line finally started to buzz. and buzz, and buzz. no one answered. Why was no one answering? i knew they were there.

Dial, the unnaturally orange soap bar. Sometimes I dug my nail into it simply for pleasure.
Mom bought it when she couldn’t affort a Dove soap bar. Only a dollar’s difference. I preferred Dove. Mom’s shopping point: the pearly skin on the seductive TV beauty seemed unattainable when a gin bottle was within easy reach…

Like an Irish Spring…no wait…wrong soap. Dial – clean and fresh, never too strong, always reliable. Sounds like an insurance ad now.

Dial is a type of soap. It is also what most people do when they want to call someone on the phone. It may sometimes be the thing you’re not supposed to touch whilst going to a commercial break.
