I'm so old I Remember when:

[Smoked Brisket]

My husband's uncle served in 'Nam. Front lines. He saw some major "stuff". I say "stuff" because what I want to say will be censored. He is finally going back in January. It took him this long to be mentally ok to go back. God Bless him on his trip

I would feel weird going to Viet Nam now and I didn't even serve.
My year was up for the draft but it ended before I learned my number.

Understand.
God bless him, indeed.

Bound to be a very emotional visit... Maybe a bit of closure for him hopefully.

And I do remember an icebox, and the ice storage market where we got the ice blocks all summer. At my aunt's summer log cabin in NW Wisconsin, before it had either electricity or a phone.
Great for me as a child, and wouldn't want to live there in winter.

Well, I still call the refrigerator an 'icebox', even though we never had one.

Me too - and the computer keyboard is normally referred to as a typewriter, only difference being I did use those.

Relatedly (but not really) I chuckle inside when I stop to realize the only Frigidaire in my kitchen is the oven.
