OK.....you've forced me to add mine
I remember when gas was $.14 a gallon and that was when they weren't having "gas wars"...
I remember air conditioning in the car was a unit that was as big as the 8 track tape player and both had to be mounted in the aftermarket....
I WAS the town paperboy and froze and sweated my ass off for unappreciative customers....
The first time I saw a color TV was when I was 19....and bought my first remote control when I was 24...
6 packs of Pepsi (16 ounce) were $1 and you got $.05 a bottle when you brought them back
The best candy was Chic-O-Stix and Banana Bike...and you could get the former for a nickel and the latter for a penny a piece...
I remember NEVER getting a "snow" or "Heat" day...we went to school come hell or high water...
Desktop computers were as big as your complete desktop and the only way to take home a computer was with a set of hand trucks.
