I remember when color TV was a novelty for rich people only. Also, I’ve seen The Stones 6 times in 5 different decades.
we had a nifty 3 color plastic film you taped over top the black and white tv to give the illusion it was color...it sucked......ive seen the stones more times in less decades
I'm so old I remember posting in this thread when it first started... Two forum changes ago, before half of the thread went "poof". I also invented dirt.
I remember men in white helmets knocking on our door at 72 Corona st, Belmont Shores and demanding my parents turn off the lights because Japanese subs were lurking. Years later, I learned that the globs of oil on the beach there, were from sunken shipping and were not something natural from the sea.
I'm not old really but the other day I was looking at pop punk stuff I liked when I was 15 and there were comments on Sum 41's fat lip all like: "people who were teenagers when this came out were sooo lucky!" and I'm usually the one saying that.
i remember when the future was in all of our hands, that it was ours to shape and mold, by our use of logic, and consideration for all things including each other. i remember as a child in the 50s, everyone was always looking backwards, and then in the 60s, people started looking forward instead, and that changed everything, and made the 70s possible. at least that's how i remember it, where i was, how i perceived, from my own perspective. and how to me, when the 80s came along, people started looking backwards again, and forgot the lessons they had learned in the 60s, to look forward and watch and choose, where they were going.
I'm so old that all of the sitcoms I used to watch are so outdated that the humor from those shows are literally offensive now.
To practice cursive the teacher would pass out ball pint pens and then collect them after the lesson.
