I remember when some movies were too graphic to be shown to people under 21
I remember when obnoxious brats were spanked public and people agreed it needed to be done

I remember:

Wearing white gloves to Sunday School.

Beachcombers

Dark Shadows-It was my aunts favorite soap

Taking the bus with a friend to downtown Seattle

The real Santa Claus was at Fredrick and Nelson's

When Redmond, WA, home of Microsoft was a hick town and only had one stoplight.

Ben Franklin's was a 5 and dime.

Single speed bikes with coaster brakes.

Coke was made with cane sugar and tasted better.

Dip Dot paints

Playing board games or working jigsaws instead of video games.

My first computer-A Commodore Vic 20

When Bewitched switched from black and white to color.

Watching J.P. Patches before school and again in the afternoon after school.

Nightmare Theater on Friday nights.

Roller Derby

The original version of all of these movies that are now remakes.

The gorillas at the zoo, Bobo and Fifi, they smoked cigarettes.

Stan Boreson and his accordion. He had two Basset Hounds, No Mo and Slo Mo.

Bozo the Clown and Captain kangaroo.

When JFK was shot. I saw the news break on TV but didn't think anything of it, I was three, but remember my next door neighbor came running over, just bawling and carrying on.

Cigarette ads
I'd walk a mile for a Camel
Winston tastes good like a cigarette should
I'd rather fight than switch-Lucky Strike
You've come a long way baby-Virginia Slims

My grandfathers old Buick, with the big tail fins. He always wore a business suit and a hat.

I could go on forever. -Jan
