We had one of those when I was growing up, too! It started about 6 months after my parents got it. The picture would just close up. They'd get it fixed and then it would start again. It was fine if you left it "warm up" for about 2 hours!

Who remembers watching the Jetsons and thinking "wow wouldnt it be great to have that visaphone, or to be able to fly your own car to work..." lol

We have pretty much everything off of the jetsons now, and they are working on a prototype now of a small 2 or 4 passanger aircraft meant to act as a taxi service.

Slow -- I had never heard of that! Thanks for the link.

Yep, I remember thinking that, Daniel.

well folks I have to get going. I punch in at work in fourty five minutes, so...

Have a good night, Daniel.

For me, it's cheap art books.

Fender skirts & mud flaps

Ooopps! The changes in technology alone, amaze me. When I first started working, the computer they had took up a whole room, and the disks were huge, probably 12 to 14" in diameter.

5 CENT CANDY BAR mmmmmm

This thread has brought back so many memories

I have two that some of you might remember

Would go visit my grandfather and uncles up in the mountain area, and have to use the outhouse. Also when no one was looking we would pick up the phone, and listen because they still had party lines there.

Another memory was when on the way home from the mountains we found a family broke down, it was right after Christmas, so Mom and Dad loaded their family of six into the station wagon with our family of five. Dad dropped us off home, and then continued to Pittsburgh to take them home.

Cloth diapers.
Wringer washers and clotheslines
Groceries packed in cardboard boxes tied with white string.
Country schools.
The first color TVs where almost everything was either purple or green.
TV roof antennas.
AM only radios, both in cars and homes.
Transistor radios.
Church on Sunday, regardless of the weather (or the end of the world, for that matter).
Wooden fishing and speed boats.
