How old are you? More fun.
How many of you are brave enough to admitt remembering the following.
I remember them all.
Blackjack chewing gum
Wax coke shaped bottles with sugar water
Soda pop machines with bottled soda pop
coffe shops with jukeboxes
home delivery of milk
Daily home delivered newspapers
party lines
P.F. flyers
Butch wax
Pea shooters
S&H green stamps
Hi-Fi's
Newsreels before the movie
Rollerskate keys
For you younger folks here, the milk was delivered in bottles sealed with a carboard pull tab and set outside your home, you had to shake it before use to mix the cream in with the milk unless grandma wanted to make butter.......and nobody ever took it from you even though it was sitting outside.
Blackjack gum was one of my favorites.Join our efforts to Secure America's Borders and End Illegal Immigration by Joining ALIPAC's E-Mail Alerts network (CLICK HERE)

How about:
Drug stores with counters where you could sit at the counter and watch them mix soda and syrup together to make a coke.

.10 Comic Books
Banana seat bicycles
Viewmasters & Creeple Peeple
Fizzies
McDonalds which had walk up windows and no indoor seating
45's were .59 and an album 2.99

I still remember when there was no damage you could do to yourself that couldn't be fixed with a liberal application of Camphophenique, Bactine, or Mercurichrome. I remember when the best place to get a drink of water on a hot summer day was the garden hose. I remember when chocolate bars and other candies were convex rather than concave. I remember when Coke came in returnable bottles and ring tabs pulled off of the can. I remember when we gawked in amazement at the technological marvel that was Pong. I remember when getting straight A's was a cause for envy, not derision. I remember when each schoolday began with a morning devotional that included a prayer and the Pledge of Allegiance with our hands over our hearts. I remember when stewardesses were called stewardesses.
Anybody want to guess how old I am?
