WIWAK I learned how to ride my bike in bell bottoms and clogs.
WIWAK I got rollerskates for my birthday. Not rollerblades, rollerskates.
WIWAK I did not have cable tv until I was 16. I had 5 channels. Cartoons were only on Saturday mornings.
WIWAK I remember Elton John lost populatity for stating he was gay. People led protests.
WIWAK I remember the big celebration for the year 1976.
WIWAK I remember people burning bras and fighting for equal rights.

I think I also learned to ride my bike with clogs and bell bottoms. The bike also had a white banana seat.

WIWAK "A Christmas Story" was not a Christmas classic...which is a shame because Ralphie's mom has it going on...:eek::D

I remember going to see "A Christmas Story" in an empty theatre with some people walking out. I had seen some of Jean Shepherd's show's on PBS so already knew of Ralphie and Randy. Around the same time I bought two collections of Jean's stories. I guess I was cool before cool came in lol. I wish PBS would rerun Jean's shows.

WIWAK the phones that you carried around and were not plugged into the wall were made of red plastic and were marketed to girls under 10.

WIWAK we had a weekly bank account through the school in which we saved (or tried) to save a nickel or a dime a week.

WIWAK the ultimate punishment at school was "the strap" in the principal's office.

WIWAK 3-D movies were a thing of the fairly recent past.

WIWAK Dick Clark still looked young. (OK, that probably applies to everyone here, no matter what the age.)

WIWAK the bad dog in the neighborhood was sent to the grandparents' farm instead of being put down.

WIWAK the one girl in school who got pregnant, and her family, were looked at differently by a lot of the adults in town.

WIWAK my older cousin was dancing the mashed potato and the monkey ... and probably a bunch of dances I don't remember.

WIWAK there were drive-in movie locations in nearly every town.

WIWAK there were drive-in restaurants and A&W Root Beer stands all over.

WIWAK our little league was considered VERY advanced when they installed an ELECTRONIC scoreboard. (Of course, every town had an organization associated with Little League, instead of the competing organizations which have since blossomed.)

WIW in college, we submitted our programs to the mainframe on punch cards. But that was better than high school, which had no computers until after I graduated.

We still have A&W in Canada but they don't have car service anymore.

I'm sorry about that...I think...but this made me laugh out loud! Thanks for sharing!!!



Nice. It's good to know some things stay in your memory forever, right?:D





Okay, so now I know how old I am. WIWAK...the first song I ever remember singing along with on the old AM radio was "My Baby Does the Hanky Panky." Sort of suits me, dontcha' think?;)

The first vinyl album cover I remeber was my brother's Beach Boy album. That was before The Beatles invaded.
 
Remember when it was okay to burn leaves??

We would spend allllllll day Saturday raking the leaves into big piles. After running and jumping into them and messing them up and then going back and raking them back into piles again my dad would set them on fire.

The crisp autumn air stinging my cheeks, the leaves tangled in my hair (when I was little, I had hair down to my heiney), and the smell of those leaves burning were some of my favorite parts of fall.

My grand parents had this huge metal barrel with holes in it that they would burn them in. After it started to die down the kids would all stand around it when it started to get dark outside and stay warm while laughing and being silly.

Suits you to a T...;)
 
WIWAK I had a crush on Jessica Rabbit...wanted to play patty-cake with her...:eek:

WIWAK I had a crush on Tom Jones :eek: He was way too old for me...I mean I was a KID ! But I loved the way he danced and sang and was fasinated by him :D
 
WIWAK family dinner was mandatory. Even if we were all pissed off at each other we still sat down at the table and ate a home cooked meal. Sometimes the issue was resolved during the meal and sometimes it wasn't and we ate together in silence...but we still ate together
 
When I was a kid we used to get the Sears Wishbook right after Halloween, and I would study the toy section extensively. Back then the Wishbook was HUGE- like the size of the collected works of Tolstoy.

Holy crap! I forgot all about the Sears Wishbook!
I would study that thing to make sure I was putting together the best possible Christmas list. Good call!
 
WIWAK my dad would probably have gotten arrested if the traffic laws with kids and seatbelts were as strict as they are now. I am pretty sure being driven to school with a truckful of kids sitting on each other's laps would be frowned upon, now..............I come from a very large family....lol
 
When I was a kid, almost every Sunday was a family dinner with extended family, Grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins etc. who hosted it varied, but it almost always happened.
 
WIWAK we made popsicles by putting lemonade and toothpicks in ice trays, and they were fucking delicious.
