Fun to Remember Carol........
This has been around before, but I
like the pictures that go with it this time around........
A bit of nostalgia for the over 60 crowd . . . . . A history lesson for the youngsters!
The perfect
age is somewhere between old enough to know better and too young to care. How
many of these do you remember? |

Remember When
--- |
|
|
When a
quarter was a decent allowance?
![]() You'd reach into a muddy gutter for a penny? ![]() Your Mom wore nylons that came in two pieces? ![]() |
Laundry detergent had free glasses, dishes or
towels hidden inside the box?
They threatened to keep kids back a grade if
they failed. . And they did it!
When a 57 Chevy was everyone's dream car...to
cruise, peel out, lay rubber or watch submarine races, and people went steady?
No one ever asked where the car keys were
because they were always in the car, in the ignition, and the doors were never
locked?
Lying on your back in the grass with your
friends and saying things like, 'That cloud looks like a... '?
Playing baseball with no adults to help kids
with the rules of the game?
|
If you can remember most or all of these, then you have lived!!!!!!!
Pass this on to anyone who may need a break from their "grown-up" life. I
double-dog-dare-ya!
I not only remember 5 cent Coke (6 ounce bottle) but the Pepsi jingle which
ended,
"twice as much for a nickel, too, Pepsi-Cola is the drink for you!"

Thank you, Chris!
A dedication to our Wizard of
Wonderment seems most appropriate to me!
Carol....I got this from one of my email buddies...and I had such fun looking at it, I thought you'd like to share it with classmates. |

Moments to Remember
January to
December, we'll have moments to remember
The New Year's Eve we did the town
The day we tore the goal post down
We'll have these moments to remember
The quiet walks, the noisy fun
The ballroom prize we almost won
We will have these moments to remember
Though summer turns to winter
And the present disappears
The laughter we were glad to share
Will echo through the years
When other nights and other days
May find us gone our separate ways
We will have these moments to remember
SPOKEN:
The drive in movie where we'd go
And somehow never watched the show
We will have these moments to remember
REPEAT LAST TWO VERSES
