If you lived as a child in the 40's, 50's, 60's or 70's how did you survive?

better yet, getting yelled at for turning the TV dial too fast! younger kids may not know what we are talking about.

i remember when my dad bought a "console" TV. remember rotarty phones? they lasted the longest too! hard to find these days, but rare are candy cigarettes. loved them the best! bus rides cost .20 cents. pay phones took dimes. old coke machines that used bottles and you could pry off the top and get a free drink!! 45 records and 8 tracks. full size vans with wierd windows and psychadelic paint jobs. corner stores was very common. most are if not all are gone now.

wow, what memories
