IT'S OK TO BE OLD........
If you were raised on The Dukes Of Hazard, Love Boat, Fantasy Island, Scooby Doo, and you played in the dirt, got your butt busted, made tents out of blankets, had 3 TV channels , had a bedtime, rode in back of pickup trucks, recorded the top 40 from the radio on cassette tapes, drank from a hose, played in the creek, rode your bike all day without a helmet, and know what vhs and 8 track tapes are...and you still turned out okay...... then re-post and don't be scared.. its ok to be old.......
If you remember pre- Computer, the Lunar Landing, Being disciplined by people other THAN your parents--and THEN you parents, eating at any friends house on any given day on the spur of the moment with just a phone call to ask Mom if it was OK, Party lines, not locking ANYTHING that had a lock on it....
Guns were 99% used for hunting, the Police RARELY even drew theirs, we did not have SWAT teams--(that I knew of), the First SONIC BOOMS... and a gang was a group of friends, or Spanky and Alfalfa......!!!!
Then it's OK to be OLD! Age is just a state of mind---mine is Kentucky... and I have no idea what that means!

ReplyDeleteBeing gone all day - playing in the sun - and Moms not being the least concerned that we'd been abducted.
ReplyDeleteWe knew what freedom was - not so many rules and safeguards that you didn't learn right and wrong just from the consequences.
