Happy Birthday Bob and Ek!
MarkWhat are the facts? Again and again and again--what are the facts? Shun wishful thinking, ignore devine revelation, forget what "the stars foretell", avoid opinion, care not what the neighbors think, never mind the unguessable "verdict of history"--what are the facts, and to how many decimal places? You pilot always into an unknown future; facts are your only clue.

Happy Birthday to the both of you!Scarecrow : I haven't got a brain... only straw.
Dorothy : How can you talk if you haven't got a brain?
Scarecrow: I don't know... But some people without brains do an awful lot of talking... don't they?
Dorothy: Yes, I guess you're right.Comment

I must be older than dirt
We didn't have a color television in our house until I was 16.
TV test patterns that came on at night after the last show and were there until TV shows started again in the morning. (there were only 3 channels...2,11 & 13)
The only phone in the house was in the living room and it was on a party line. Before you could dial, someone you didn’t know was always using it.
No fast food, Pizzas were not delivered to our home but milk was.
The Milkman delivered milk in glass bottles with cardboard stoppers
They showed newsreels before the movie
Movies cost a quarter and stars kissed with their mouths shut. There were no movie ratings because all movies were responsibly produced for everyone to enjoy viewing, without profanity or violence or most anything offensive.
We would spend our lunch money on Wax Coke-shaped bottles with colored sugar water, Candy cigarettes or bubblegum with baseball cards.
Soda pop machines that dispensed 5 cent cokes in glass bottles
Mom had a 5 cent glass coke bottle. In the bottle top was a stopper with holes. That bottle sat on the end of the ironing board to 'sprinkle' clothes with because we didn't have steam irons.
Wash tubs had wringers and mom hung the clothes on a line.
Attic Fans (no A/C)
Refrigerator/freezers had metal ice trays with lever
Coffee shops or diners had tableside juke boxes (10 cents each or 3 for a quarter) Hamburgers were 5 for a dolar.
I wore P.F. Flyers
I wore a crew cut / Flat top with Butch wax
My bike had only one speed and baseball cards clipped on the front fork
I wore rubber bands on my pants legs because my bicycle didn’t have a chain guard.
My folks didn’t have credit cards, they had a revolving charge card from Sears & Roebuck.
The banned our Peashooters at school.
Howdy Doody came on Saturday morning
Rock & roll was on 45 RPM records
When you bought gas (29 cents/gal) you got S&H greenstamps
We carried roller skate keys because one size fits all.
Scooters and skateboards were hand made from old roller skates.
Cork popguns always ran out of corks
The teachers made tests with Mimeograph paper
We went there in Packards, Studebakers, Willis, VW bugs
The cars had head light dimmer switches on the floor.
Ignition switches on the dashboard.
We used hand signals for cars without turn signals.
Heaters were mounted on the inside of the fire wall.
We all went to drive-in movies on Friday night.
And Penicillin could cure anything.
I may be old but I'm not ready for a dirt nap.Last edited by PhishPhreek; 01-10-2010, 11:02 PM.'Dear Lord,' the minister began, with arms extended toward heaven and a rapturous look on his upturned face. 'Without you, we are but dust ...'
He would have continued but at that moment my very obedient daughter who was listening leaned over to me and asked quite audibly in her shrill little four-year old girl voice, 'Mom, what is butt dust?'Comment
