OT: I Remember When

[mac5732]

I remember when during Xmas Season people were friendly, everyone would say Merry Xmas to you even if they were strangers and all the stores were beautifully decorated for the season and greed was not as prevalant with retailers.

I remember when Xmas season and Xmas decorations wouldn't be put up until the day after thanksgiving, and everyone looked foreward to it.

I remember 5 cent root beers in large mugs at served at the local drug store fountain.

I remember a gallon of gas for 18 cents

I remember ciggeretts for 19 cents a pack

I remember comic books for a nickle

I remember baseball card packs for a nickle and you could actually chew the gum

I remember our families first blk and white Zenith TV...

I remember when a new ford mustang was only $950 and $1050 for a convertible

I remember music that you could understand and where the words made sense and not based around drugs and sex

I remember walking 5 miles to school in the snow

sigh........ the good old days
