Legalily said:Do you guys remember that show?


DH and I still laugh about that one every now and then... usually when there's an instance of someone doing something well intentioned but extremely stupid!! Rolling on the floor laughing

Wild turkeys, on the other hand... did quite a number on DH's car when one decided to fly up and go back after crossing the road walking; over $1000 worth of damage to the Mazda that time Blinking

Used to suck on FIZZIES !

Got your vaccinations AT THE SCHOOL

Doctor smelling of rubbing alcohol showed up at your house ( THE NEEDLE!)

Your ironing was spritzed and stored in a zippered bag in the fridge

You wore gloves to church

Copy paper was blue and stank " mimeograph "

In order to drink milk...the glob of cream needed to be dislodged from behind the cap

you thought evaporated milk, sugar, blocks of cheese and rice, and flour and such..came from that big building that all us kids would gather at while mom stood on the collection line

You have a big smeary, wrinkled mark on your upper arm from the smallpox vaccination

You had to be in "BEFORE DARK"

And NEVER..EVER...E V E R ...was a boy coming to pick you up and honking a horn ...as a matter of fact..cars did not let single girls inside until the girl was one step away from marriage...

And played "kick the can" and "red rover" in the middle of the street...

People dressed up to travel on a plane.

Your mom put the Thanksgiving turkey in the oven at 6 a.m. ... did turkeys really take that much longer to cook back then? or did we just eat dinner a lot earlier?

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone! Smiling

And my first bike was a full size and I couldn't even sit on the seat. They grew with us instead of having one for every size! Couldn't even see over the handle bar but it was easier to balance Hilarious! Hilarious!
