If you are born before 1977 you remember what it was like to have to get up to change the channel on TV. You also rememver when TV ended for the night with the indian crying, the pledge of alligiance, and then a countdown to fuzz....

honestly, steven (and i'm not trying to be an ass) i think many of these (not all) might apply to you only because you believe they're true. if you were to decide you didn't want to allow them to happen/be true, you might just be able to change some of them...

Oh my. I had forgotten the crying Indian! I also remember the big controversy when it was discovered he wasn't native American at all.

Now the broadcast never stops. Makes me wonder how changed the world will be in another 20 years.

(I hope at least I get my flying car I was promised all those years ago. Damn those Jetsons for getting my hopes up) :laughing

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

funny or not they apply.... even the shitty boss part just being your own boss does not mean you cant be shitty to yourself..... I find i am more shitty to myself then any other boss i have had simply due to the fact i am constatnly working and refuse to make my self stop due to that mortage and children thing....... Might be why i have

bad knees

bad back

bad attitude

exhaustion by 9 PM

and many more that was not mentioned.

65 was better.

And yes. I remember the crying Indian, the countdown to fuzz, the 70's version of the NBC jingle (if 3 chords is a jingle), The 70's version of the Coke jingle (I'd like to get to know ya, and a Coke'll show ya.....), Laugh-In, etc. I could go on, but it makes me look like the geezer I'm not.

well....there are some things from 65 that I adore....

and JEEZUZ but I remember allof that shit you mentioned too.

I'm suprised that nobody mentioend 45's and having to put that little plast doo dah in the middle of it before you could play it on the record player.....or 8 tracks....

now when you go out and buy a CD - you miss out on the whole adventure that we used to have in buying records. Shit we've got an old ALice COpper school's out record in our vinyl collection, where the record looks like a school desk, and the table legs fold out from under it, and the record itself has a pair of pink panties over it.

now thats a record.

with CD's you have to go get the magnifying glass out to just read the text on the sleave......sux.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

that's only because you are old and you need your glasses, not a magnifying glass

[Steven]

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

HARSH!!!! but true

[Onyx]

:laughing

I've gotten in the habit of carrying reading glasses with me everywhere I go now. Until a few years ago I didn't need reading glasses. It's a royal pain in the ass to have to get the damn things out when I want to read something in a store or am trying to read the instructions to something!

I wish that could be fixed with lasik surgery or something. I see fine with my contacts unless it's fine print.
