Mabel, Black Label!

How about Hamms, from the lands of the sky blue waters (I used to love the TV commercials for Hamms, remember the bear)?

Dippty Do (that's how the women with the curlers got their hair to "fix" into place).

Climbing up onto the roof to rotate the TV antenna because the wind had blown the antenna out of position. Wishin' we were as rich as the folks down the street with an antenna rotor (motor driven antenna).

Don... Davy and Golith, "Gee, I don't know Davy...". Sunday morning cartoons with Biblical themes.

Anybody remember Astro Boy? Cecil the Seasick Sea Serpent? Mighty Mouse? Casper the Friendly Ghost? Or my favorite: Johnny Quest! Heck, remember when they started shipping off the Saturday Cartoon production off to Japan and the drawing became more or less static pictures with very little movement?

.........

But lest we forget, there were also some very "not so good" things about the good ol' days. Remember Polio, "whites only", and "duck and cover"?
