I'm so old I Remember when:

[tripletfeb]

I've said this before and I'll say it again. They still teach home ec in schools. It's called culinary fundamentals and my son is currently taking it in his freshman year. And yes they use knives and ovens. Our school never got rid of it. We also still have shop class, wood working, and home maintenance and repair

Adding that so far this year, my son has gone to an apple orchard to pick apples and made a pie in the class. They have also made pizza from scratch and buffalo chicken dip

I remember when Hijacking an airliner to Cuba occurred on what seemed like a regular schedule.

^^Those made a certain particular sound when you used them. That sound was how a family I babysat for called their cat out of hiding. She always came running when she heard it, and then she either got her (very expensive food) or a treat.

And that's how they knew she got out: she didn't come when they opened her can of food.

Electric can openers are definite cat whistles still to this day.
