And how about that super hot/smart Joan Embry* from the San Diego Zoo that frequented 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson'?


*As a preteen I had such a crush on her!

Brown paper sacks. I would cut them up and use them for all kinds of stuff.

Thousands of years ago the teaches had us bring them to school and we made book covers out of them. Chuckles, maybe I should have posted this in the how do you know you are getting older thread.

girl_dee 07-27-2013 11:18 AM

Remember that big elastic thingy with metal hooks to latch it that went around the books to hold em together??

girl_dee 07-28-2013 04:54 AM

Ok Blade i found ONE photo online... they came in different colors and the fancy ones had one strap going each way...

Sometimes they would break and that was always a disaster lol

Remember when... it was possible to actually greet friends and loved ones as they deplaned and walked down the airplane stairs -- on the tarmac!

Does anyone (multi millionares with private jets) get to do that anymore?

Yep.

Remember when you could turn your tv on and not worry about what you'll see or what your kids see?
ahhh...those were the good 'ol days

JAGG 08-01-2013 09:19 AM

Riding your bike to the store to pick up a few things your mom needed.
Cutting the neighbor's grass for a whopping 50 cents being pissed that you only got 50 cents.
Your dad finding out you got 50 cents from an old lady and making you give it back. Oh the outrage of it all. Lol
Everyone carried book bags to school.
Fire truck rides at the local carnival.
4th of July parades and they threw bubble gum.

When people didn't bitch about kids playing outside and having to check on them every 5 seconds.

The beach was for sand buckets, and castles, and running into the surf, and racing away from it.

The beach is for sunsets, and love, and running into the surf, and racing away from it, with her.

A fat sack of these babies and you were the coolest kid ever.

Had to be in when the streetlights came on........

jac 08-03-2013 06:30 AM

Neighborhood forts were built in the backyard using scrap lumber from anyone they could gather it from?

Meetings were held with all the neighborhood kids?

President, vice-president, secretary, and treasure were elected?

Everyone took turns bringing refreshments?

And nothing actually got accomplished but it was great fun for hours and hours at a time?


Yeh, good times!!

You had it all if your jacks were coloured aluminum and your superball was multicoloured.

girl_dee 08-03-2013 05:01 PM

Skates that had a key.

Ranger Butch Force 08-03-2013 05:47 PM

Getting caught with a cigarette was the worst thing that happened to you.

*Anya* 08-03-2013 05:51 PM

I used to earn 35 cents an hour babysitting at age 13 and then got a raise to a whopping 50 cents an hour.

:baby:

girl_dee 08-03-2013 08:26 PM

Cracker Jacks had a real prize..... Like a magnifying glass or a tattoo!

Bèsame* 08-03-2013 08:46 PM

We used to write things down? Now we take pictures of it with our phone.

PoeticSilence 08-04-2013 06:07 PM

We woke up and took our pajamas off, and folded them and put them either under our pillow or in our pajama bag before making our bed.

Blade 08-05-2013 07:11 AM

Remember when nobody you knew had a riding mower, everyone had a gas push mower

Bèsame* 08-05-2013 07:16 AM

When every phone call was a surprise? Now it's caller ID, and we ignore calls?

PoeticSilence 08-05-2013 09:57 AM

You sat by your rotary phone during the afternoon movie because it was Dialing for Dollars.

girl_dee 08-05-2013 08:38 PM

Remember when bedtime was when i heard

"Hereeeeeeeeeeeeeee's Johnny"

Remember when the school day began with The Pledge of Allegiance and a prayer? My day still begins with a prayer.

PoeticSilence 08-06-2013 01:15 AM

You had to beg to get to stay up to watch Creature Feature...

girl_dee 08-06-2013 05:13 AM

jac 08-08-2013 06:05 AM

Remember when............


Walking away from the ice-cream truck with your little purchase and sitting on the curb with your friends while everyone enjoyed their treats together.

girl_dee 08-08-2013 05:53 PM
