I'm so old I Remember when:

[RoyalChick]

Then you must be close to my daughter's age. My son (1975) got the vaccine, my daughter (1978) did not. I hsd a lot of anxiety about it. By golly, I wanted her vaccinated!

Oh no. Much, much older. That was the last of my many smallpox shots. I think 1977 or 1978. I was just going to college I think.
The US stopped vaccinating earlier than that.

Happy New Year

I am so old that......I remember I had long ago stop do anything on my birthday....after all....my age is just a simple chronological number, I am still all that

I do whatever I please on any day, no need for birthday, no need to remind me how long since I joined planet earth

As my chronological age get higher, I am getting more outrageous


Happy 2026

I was thinking that, too, because I remember my mother said the big vaccination scar was because of smallpox, and I was the first year that didn't have a scar. 1970.

I remember that too. Dad made us kids all come in and watch it, he said history was being made. He was right.
