Remember:

The original Big Wheel and the Green Machine and spinning out in the driveway?

Slide rules?

Digital watches with red LED numbers (I had a Star Wars one)?

Ginos Hamburgers (was that a Northeast thing?) How about Pappy's Pizza?

Remember when:

There were no aluminum bats?

And when your driver, 3-wood and 5-wood were made of wood. And there were no cavity back irons, only forged blades?

Somehow, I painstakingly wrote a term paper using Basic on a TRS-80, before we has a word processing program.

Making your own gaskets from a sheet of rubber for the VW Beetle - the same one you shut your little brother in the trunk (in the front) and the same one you sat in the little space behind the back seat because your dad was carpooling during the gas crisis and all the seats were full?

Remember the gas crisis?

Remember the seat in the back of the station wagon that faced backwards?

Remember paneling on the same station wagon?

Remember when the only seat belt was a lap belt (and we never used it)?

Remember when a child could sit in the front seat? And there were no "car seats?"
