'Twas a joke gentlemen, a joke. Today's lifestyle kids don't understand that people carried terribly dangerous ignitable items within their pockets on a regular basis back in the day. In fact, people carried cigarette lighters with them even if they (gasp!) didn't smoke themselves, because some comely young lady next to you might need a light...

I remember when there was a smoking or no smoking section on airplanes.

^^^^ Yep .... and how else could ya have 5000 Bics held up high between songs ... now it's a phone :(.

Don't remember no-smoking sections on planes tho' .... mebbe it was outside ... on a wing :D

I do remember quite a few escorted off by the popo upon landing after the ban...

Idiots....

Sorry, Didn't see the green font.

Like having a peeing and non-peeing section in the pool...

Remember getting dressed up to fly? When I was young, we would fly to Toronto to visit my grandparents that lived on Georgian Bay. Always dressed in your Sunday best.

Speaking of pools...our High School required everyone to take one semester of swimming in their Phys. Ed. class in either your sophomore or junior class. The schools were going through some sort of bacteria scare in those years.(1969)...so there were no swim suits/trunks allowed.

Same for the girls. The double doors to the pool were closely guarded when the girls were there for their class. :)

I do recall getting under the desks. Like that was going to help. In case of a nuclear event, out of the total destruction zone, if the roof fell there would be squashed kids all in a row for identification reasons?

I worked for a TV/Stereo store, I and a friend would deliver new TV’s and pickup and deliver TV’s that were repaired in the shop. The Console TV’s were the worst. They were another 3 feet wider than that. RCA 100 TV chassis, Reel to Reel Tape Player, Record Turntable, Amplifier and Equalizer, and multi speakers on each side. Solid wood structure and a door on the top. Picture this, a 250-300 lb behemoth as described above, going up an exterior spiral staircase, with me as the guy on the back holding the larger percentage of the weight. By the way, nobody tipped people but a waitress or waiter.

Yup, those machines also showed marginal. Usually at the very bottom of the green arc when new. One of my jobs at the TV shop. I’m sure Rexall and our TV shop made a money on these testers.

Today, people still carry "terribly dangerous ignitable items within their pockets on a regular basis." They are called cell phones!!![emoji23]

I owned that same model TV in when I got my first apartment. It was incredibly heavy.


Yes


Or to light the burner on the stove.



I remember living in California when it was not screwed up, that is how old I am.

They still have snow fences in Wyoming and Nebraska

worked doing pick up and delivery after school from the age of 13 to 17, replaced picture tubes in those sets sometimes doing four or five after school. 25AP22 was the tube number on the the GE above

I remember when they switched Darrins on us.
