I'm so old I Remember when:

[The Moonshiner]

Pet rocks

Mexican jumping beans

Did any of you watch the Andy Griffith Show? I came across it a few months ago and liked it a lot - but I’ve only watched a few episodes.

 

[Sammster]

Do y’all mind if I add my two cents even though I don’t really belong here? I always feel like I’m being rude if I comment on other people’s threads that I wasn’t invited to.

Are we supposed to wait for an invitation? I never have. Please do jump in!

I remember when I could just go to bed and sleep in an opened window house in the heat of summer and go to sleep. Not anymore. Not even with AC.... But it is time I go and try.

I never watched it when I was little. But, my DH did, and we recently watched - possibly the entire season

I'm gonna need to know on what station and at what time.

You might can import it from all the way down here. You can surely call in to it. I don't listen to it but have a friend that does. People have found work there I was told.

Carnac the magnificent.

Get off on the Slawson cutoff

And a lot of girls had them in purses in my school. Those of us in FFA had one to take for class work. Cutting rope, cabbage, broccoli, etc. Just a useful tool. Oh and pickups had guns in the gun racks during hunting season.

It seemed like everybody who drove a pickup had a gun rack with at least one rifle in it.

 

[fuzzi]

the memories just keep flooding, don't they?

Chiffon margarine: "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature!"
"It's Slinky! It's Slinky! Oh what a wonderful toy..."
Playtex bras: "It lifts and separates!"
"My bologna has a first name, it's O-S-C-A-R, ..." or,
"Oh I wish I was an Oscar Meyer weiner, that is what I truly wish to be-ee-ee..."
"Two all-beef patties special sauce lettuce cheese pickles onions on a sesame seed bun"
"It's Rice A Roni, the San Francisco treat!"
"I'm not gonna try it, you try it. I'm not gonna try it. Hey, let's get Mikey...!"
"I'd like to teach the world to sing, in perfect harmony....."

Oh please make me stop.

"Winston tastes good like a cigarette should!"

I know we technically don’t need one but I always feel like I do. I didn’t have much socialization growing up and so I never feel comfortable jumping into a conversation .
