I'm so old I remember the first TV broadcast signal way back then in 1932. I was 19 at the time.

I'm so old I remember... When every town - city had a US Postal Box on just about every corner in town. Most pharmacies had a US Postal Drop Box near the prescription counter for out going letters only.

I vaguely remember my dad playing on a Sega Megadrive and his Windows 98 PC (think I was around 5 or 6 at the time)

I'm so old I remember this... and this was the Cat's Meow for hi-tec gadget for Ho Ho Ho Christmas if you had one every neighbor wanted to see it... along with the "NEW" Aluminum Tree... very very rare. Artificial trees especially Aluminum are just a fad.. as my dad would say.
