I'm old enough to remember when summer didn't start until June. What the hades
is up with it being 80 F in March?!?

Party lines. You could quietly pick up the phone and listen to your neighbor's con-
versation.

When we tied a yellow ribbon 'round that ole oak tree during the Iran hostage crisis.

And having a young crush on:

I'm old enough to remember watching the Electric Company, the Great Space Coaster, and HR Puff & Stuff.

I remember when Land of the Lost, Battlestar galactica & the 6 million dollar man were shows with great special effects.

I remember when Internet porn was a playboy centerfold turns into x's & o's but looked great from 15' away....and it took 37 mins to download & 5 more to print on a dot matrix printer.

I remember when video games weren't yet good enough to prevent us kids from going out & riding our bikes or throwing the football around.

I remember when people smoked everywhere. Restaurants, bars, playgrounds. I remember buying cigarettes as a 14 yr old. I remember Joe Camel, the Camel cigarette spokes-cartoon. I remember having a designated "ssmoking area" in HS. Crazy.

I remember a time with no cell phones, no digital film, no CDs much less mp3s

Wow I'm old.


I remember when the "100 Grand bar" was called the 100,000 bar".
