Geeze...don't shoot the messenger. Just having a little fun. Perhaps you should try the same.

History does not change just because the book was written 6 years ago. Who the heck wants to reminisce about something that is just a couple years old, unless you are 20. Hey guys, remember the Playstation 1?? No, but I had the original Atari game consule before they called it a 2600. Pac-man, Missle Attack, Asteroids, Space Invaders--had (still have) them all. Have it hooked to an old TV ang my grandkids play them. Awsome graphics!!!!

Keep the good links coming.

History always remains history.

Remember tax stamps, milk chutes, curb feelers, Fan Tan chewing gum, Finius T. Bluster, or dad's Pennyslvania push lawn mower and Keuffel & Esser slide rule??

....we were parked one night and I tried the old curb feeler move. She wacked me one good. Had a hard time explaining the bruised cheek to my Mom the next day.
