[BO DUTCH]

I'm Sooooo Old that.........

Pumping gas at a service station was an honorable profession.
The attendants wore uniforms with hard billed hats and neck ties.
They knew your name even though you only used his service to fill the front tire on your bicycle.
The machanic would give us all the lead wheel weights we wanted for fishing sinkers. Of course we would often drop off a few fish to him for his family.

Stores and businesses were all closed on Sunday, so you had to plan ahead on the weekends. All stores closed at 5pm, and dinner was served at 6pm sharp !!

Things we were afraid of.......
Starter crank kick back !
Magnito shock !
The crazy man who never came out of his house !
Falling into the canal !
Big dogs chasing you on your bike !
Bullies !
and...... women drivers !!

How many remember the Flagging System used in empty milk bottles to tell the milkman what you needed that week ?

How about the squirrel tails or coon tails hanging from the radio antennas of cars ?
Coon skin caps, Davy, Davy Crockett, king of the wild frontier.
Hah, you didn't know I could sing, did ya ?

Nuff for now !!
