    You are all just a bunch of punk ass kids.

    Wait, you mean they don't have those things anymore? Darn, and I never appreciated them enough when we had 'em.

    Remember how the milk in those bottles on the back porch would freeze in winter and the cream would shoot up frozen 4 inches out of the bottles?

    I don't know what PF Flyers are. Otherwise..........no, no, really, I never heard of ANY of that!!!

    I think Butch Wax was what boys used to make their short hair cuts, the buzz cuts, stand up in front.

    I probably just heard that somewhere..........couldn't have been from my brothers using it.........

    I know, tough guy, I shouldn't say anything, as you'll claim I try and look tough daily. I'm glad I was man enough to take back my words. I know, I know. Save it.
    Well, Cletus, I can't say I have a better wife because I don't have one. I can't say I have a better house because I don't have one. I can't say I have a better dog because I don't have one. The cats-n-dogs belong to the daughter. Can't say I have a better whatever-reptile-or-fish-you-got-this-week cuz I'll probably NEVER be bored enough to even want one

    And since I DON'T have any of the aforementioned (ESPECIALLY the first one), I have time to work out ; which, is a good thing given the fact I've had to get myself back from not even being able to walk 10 feet without falling.

    And let's face it @jimnyc, if you looked like Brad Pitt I'd call you the ugliest fucker on the planet just because ... I really didn't even look at your pic so wipe that butthurt off your face

    I don't think I recall newsreels before movies. Cartoons.

    I STILL drink from a real glass. If I must, a can. We had a milkman and milk came in glass bottles, and Cokes were a nickel in the machine and came in a bottle. I remember the rest of the stuff.
    Just remembered a few more: I remember when a pack of smokes was 35cents.
    Gas was only 28cents a gallon.
    Train ride from where I lived in the Philly suburbs, into the city was 75cents, and a Buck for round trip.
    Haircut was 1.50.
    Drive in movies 1.00 a car night on Friday and Saturday.
    Plastic model airplanes, and ships were 1.50 to 2.50.
    My allowance at 13 years old was 2 bucks a week.
    Ice cream soda at the Drug store was .50cents.
    Popular Mechanics magazine was .75cents. Playboy was (SHHHHH) 1.50.
    The party lines were where all the neighbors who HAD a phone,
    had to wait their turn to make a call, and everybody could listen if they wanted.
    Newsreels were shown before the Cartoons, and the movie.
    We could leave our bicycle out front over night, and nobody would take it.
    My dad left the windows in the car open during the Summer, on the street, over night.
    We didn't need a Fishing license to go down to the creek and fish.
    We had 55 gallon drums, with the lid cut off that we used to BURN our trash, and the garbage man came by twice a week. The garbage truck had a Wide Trough across the back of the truck...and the garbage (STINKING STUFF) was lifted up into the top of the truck.
    Played stickball in the street, football, without helmets in the snow, and swam in the wading pool at the park during the Summer.
    I had Sneakers that I wore all Summer, that got so torn up....as our town Fire chief laughed at us...telling us...when he was growing up. His shoes were so thin. He could step on a Dime...and be able to tell whether it was HEADS, or TAILS. No joke.
    I love to make Liberals Cry, and Whine.
    So, this is for them.

    Most of that I remember. I didn't get shoes during the summer. We ran barefoot or wore sandals. And yeah, one pair, threadbare sneakers with no tread and i pr of dress shoes for church. Play clothes were last year's school clothes. And DON'T get your butt caught outside rough-housing in the school clothes

    I think I was 5 or 6 when gas was 27 cents a gallon here. I only remember it because my grandfather bitched about it going up. That dude could squeeze a penny until Abe Lincoln squealed.
