Things that were important, significant or troubling then (I was born in 1956) that are not now:
Vapor lock: Used to happen to cars.
Gun racks: My HS parking lot had dozens of truck with them, and they were
populated.
The draft: The last draft was in 1973.
VD: Rumor is a little shot in the bum, problem solved. How quaint.
Rabbit Ears: When we got a roof top antenna with an electric pointer
mechanism, shut up: We were the Jetson's
Drive In Theaters: License to steal some free time
TV Test Pattern: Replaced by the Housewife's of Madison County
Air at the Pumps: Because you needed it.
So much more.
The best part of growing up when I did was getting and staying outside, unorganized games without a coach.
