The decency of people was the rule of the day and doing the right thing was a source of pride.

Those were the good ole days. There are still a few people who are like this.

I'm so old I remember :

The threat of WW III , and teachers showing us survival techniques and the announcements on the radio telling everyone what to watch for and if it's seen, "go to the nearest fallout shelter".

I remember when Kelloggs Corn Flakes were a big deal.

The only difference with my truck is the 5 sp shift is on the floor.

Do you know whose birthday it was the other day? Cheerios! 75 years! I do love Cheerios! Even if they are too much here in Tennessee.

When I was in CalifFUNia twenty some years ago... I remember buying the square ice cream cones- or maybe rectangle, NOT round. It was in Santa Maria and I cannot remember the store's name. Was it Thrifty? That seems right...

I bet that is it. Why is it gone??

Okay, now I am wistful for the summer I spent at my grandmothers when I was (gulp) 20. I rode a borrowed bike all around town. I knew that town by the time I was done. LoL I have had my first date there. It was bad! Not wistful for that!

My mom came for a short while (We were living in MO at the time) and THEN I got to drive! HAAA Want to know that story?!

I had lost my wallet, actually was stolen at Disneyland and so, I didn't have my driver's license. Soooo, I went to the CA DMV and got a temporary license! Resourceful ! I got to drive!

Okay, have to be completely honest, I am wistful for almost any time except now. Ah, well. That's life.
