Kids these days will never know….

Working on it. But I have a passel of grandkids.

Come on man. I've got 12 of them myself with at least one on the way and I'm only 59 y/o... You gotta have what, 10 years on me?

Wish the latter statement was true.

I can still remember the song in the ad. Crazy Wheels, Goodyear colorful Crazy Wheels, red blue yellow, Crazy Wheels, orange and green makin' the scene, Crazy Wheels, Goodyear colorful Crazy Crazy wheels!

Ah, 1969.

Get on the stick! The astronauts on the Moon really put these inside their helmets to help them get through the nearly 8 hour days they were putting in on the later Apollo landings.

Those look like Kit-Kats.

I know all you older guys will remember this. Doubt the kids today would be able to tell you what it is though even with the labels...

Easy, music controls for those 8-tracks the old farts talk about.
Reverse = go back a song
Neutral = pause
Drive = play
Second, First = jump to start of album or skip the intro

I almost have enough firearms for one per grandchild.

You obviously need more firearms.

I have wished many times that you could still buy that stuff so my kids could experience what real pain is...

Funny story. I didn't drink coffee as a kid but I do now as an adult. I remember mom making Sanka for dad (which might be why they got divorced). When I was in college I had a neighbor move in next door that spent a lot of time in Brazil drinking espresso. One time I was being neighborly and offered him coffee which happened to be that stuff. He said I made the worlds worst coffee and we laughed. Looking back on it, I understand it more.


@BeachGator - are you calling me immature?

that was CD. Actually that merthiolate predates swiss mocha and now we know why it is gone

Why was Merthiolate banned?


It said merthiolate, which has been used as germ killer, was already banned due to its mercury content.

Me, no. Not none of me. Why would you ask a question like that?
