Re: If You Can Remember all These Things

I remembered everything though some was nostalgia.It's heck getting old but it beats the alternative.

Re: If You Can Remember all These Things

Remember almost all of it. I think we grew up in the best of times, in spite of Korea, 'Nam, and the "Bra Burners". Hope our kids will say the same about their era, but doubt if they can.

I bought a nice '55 Chev ragtop in '60 for $800. Paid cash. Farm wages were $8. a day/w room and board.
Thanks for posting.

Re: If You Can Remember all These Things

Well I remember some of it but not as much as some. I'm not bald yet but not gray either..YET! All though my 21 year old daughter is making sure I get there faster than I had planned.

Boy can I relate to that!!!

I knew some, but mostly from nostalgia. I am not an old fart (don't ask the kids though ).
