Remember "Beany and Cecil?" How about "Rocky and Bullwinkle" which had all those allusions to the Cold war which most modern kids wouldn't understand. Remember when AM stations played music, mostly top 40? FM existed, but mostly it was classical or religious programming. And, am I mistaken or was there an ad in Times Square that had smoke coming out of someone's mouth?

I remember all of it! Listening to 77 WABC, Imus in the morning. Thesmoking billboard you remember was the Marlboro man in Times Square. People today don't even remember this advertising icon...
I remember people actually smoking in department stores. You weren't supposed to, but they did anyway, and nobody really busted chops about it. This was in the 70's. The good ole days before this country became a watered down "PC" nightmare.

As a smoker I don't mind going outside or a designated area but I agree the PC police have become an out of control nightmare.
This past Sunday February 20,2011 marked the 100th birthday of Kids TV's first educator:Paul Tripp.."Mr.I Magination!".If any of the users of"The Blast From The Past"site have any memories of seeing Mr.Tripp's tv shows,seeing him in person at any of the many venues in the NYC/NJ/Ct./LI area or..if they've ever appeared on his tv shows?
No, when was this show on? I don't remember it at all & we got our first TV in 1948 or something.
