Man A&W Rootbeer was so keen!

Mom and Dad would get it to go and hurry home so me, my lil Brother and Sister would have time to watch the Mickey Mouse Club, in Black and White on the old Zenith.

Then bathtime.

'63 then...

Damm I feel old now.

In '63 I was just figuring out how to poop in the toilet. :D (I still question at times if I've really figured it out though, even today)
I remember watching Walt Disney, "Uncle Milton", and the "Really big shooooooe", and "Luuuuucy, I'm hooooome!" :)  Boy, did we butcher this thread! :D

My wifey laffs at me when she asks "How do you want the Roast Beef?"

"Baby cut it a lil thin and make the gravy...I'll take it from there....!"  I get this glare in my eyes and the wifey warns the kids... "Stay away from the fork....!"

Man oh man.

The middle sister has a ton of her Barbie dolls from back then, some still in the original box. She says she could get upwards of $20k for her collection.

Kids could hear alot better then...a Good Humor Ice Cream truck could not pass my house within a 5 block radius without being heard.
Collecting lightning bugs in a jar. Tellin lil girls that the bats were out and they'd make a nest in their hair. Cowboys were the good guys and you always died if you were an Indian.
Dale and Roy... no not the AH guys... the Evans.  The Hardy Boys and just nibbling on a Big Boy burger sittin infront of the TV with newspaper spread out in case you spilt something.

Do you remember when Arby's actually cut the roast beef that were roasting in their ovens in front of you and make your sandwich? Or am I dating myself by stating this.... :O

that would be a pretty uneventful date wouldn't it?
