Those were the days when a website longer than your screen was "broken", because AOL didn't consider a scrollbar was necessary

It's funny considering that disk such a huge part of my childhood. It was about that time everyone began having access to the internet from their home computer. I sometimes wish I was born a few years earlier than I was so I could of really experienced life without constant and instance access to everyone and everything.

Our Charles Chips man that delivered our 'nasty' potato chips to the house, circa 1973, had served two tours in Vietnam as a chopper pilot.

As I recall, he served as pilot on UH-1 Huey Medevac missions. He commented one day that he very much enjoyed his new job in the fresh air
(we lived in the hills-outside of Kansas City, MO). After all, he survived as a combat pilot...

Oh man, my mom accumulated a lot of these when my brother and I were kids. Redeem about a thousand of them and get something back with a cash value of maybe a buck, lol.

Every once and a while when I'm ready to blow up my computer for one reason or another, I think about the fact that when I was growing up there were 3 channels of TV and after Johnny Carson was over no TV.

At least there was Johnny Carson.

When I was little we had a TV antenna in the ground that rose above our house. It was right outside my bedroom window, and it wasn't long before my little brother and I were using it to sneak out of the house!!
The cool thing is that once we added the antenna, we got five channels, including channel 45, which those who remember, played the Munsters and the Addams Family (the original one with John Astin!)

Funny Face was a powdered instant drink mix similar to Kool-Aid, marketed by Pillsbury in the 1960s and 1970s. They originally used calcium cyclamate as a sweetener, but due the FDA banning the use of cyclamates, the sweetener was changed to saccharin, with the option of buying packets with no sweetener. The product line was sold to another company which limited the distribution and discontinued it in 1978.
