Really doesn't seem that long ago.... [View All]

[skygazer]

...when my father was always yelling at me not to stretch the phone cord (anyone remember phone cords?).

...when I had to heat my lunch on a stove because the microwave oven hadn't yet been invented.

...when you could ask for leaded or unleaded gas and you'd get your oil checked while it pumped.

...when I had a record collection and worried about them getting scratched or warped.

...when I only had to dial five digits of a local phone number.

...when Volkswagon advertised their Beetle as costing under $2000.

...when television stations actually shut down for the night (they'd play the national anthem with a picture of a waving flag and then go to static until morning).


What do you remember?
