Life without a cell phone.
When you left the house, you were gone and would be back when you got home. You usually couldn't leave a message, unless I was wealthy enough to have an answering machine. Your mom, dad, or boss couldn't call you or text you and demand to know why you didn't return the call I was born 20 years too late. |

Quote HistoryQuoted: We had one of these at our elementary school. Know of at least 1 kid that broke his forearm, 3rd grade, 1974 https://i.imgur.com/LXLNSNOh.png We had those. But we also lived in a desert, so they were burning hot. We also had metal slides in the neighborhood parks that we had to wear pants during the 110+ degree summers to ride with a towel under you because kids got burned when their legs slipped off and hit the metal. Nearing 120 degrees the wooden play structures started oozing preservatives |

Quote HistoryQuoted: Playing dodgeball. http://svite-league-apps-content.s3.amazonaws.com/2799/6756/Dodgeball%20(1).jpg In summer camp, we played dodgeball with Frisbees, while also incorporating soccer goals for a points system. The most fun sport I've ever played. Then, one year, some moron replaced the soft frisbees with hard disc golf discs...a girl I knew nearly lost an eye within the day, and the sport was canceled forever. |

The kid's father found out he was hiding it in the basement. He tried to wrangle it and got bitten a few times. They're not as the ad portrays. They are much larger. It was quite the affair. Man thats crazy; they shipped a live monkey through the mail? Before 1968 Gun Control Act, you could have your gun shipped right through the mail to you too. Get a live monkey through the mail is 100% crazier then a gun. |

I mean, you do know that you don’t have to answer the phone if it rings... or even turn it on, for that matter, right? As for people demanding things... go to a garage sale, buy an old pair of balls (we used to have those), and tell them to fuck off. |

We would wait for the attendant to go out to the pumps (no self service back then), slip in two quarters and have our pack of cigs! That was in the mid '60s.

Quote HistoryQuoted: Quoted: When't the last time you've seen a kid riding a bike outside of his own immediate neighborhood? How can you spot a kid on a bike and know from which neighborhood he or she lives? Well, most of us know the kids in our own neighborhoods. And, it's not unusual to see (very small) kids circling around a driveway or in front of house under the close oversight of what are obviously parents. And, a kid driving a bike through a commercial area or parked outside of a convenience store probably doesn't live there. I didn't think this was rocket science. |

I guess it is rocket science, because it doesn't really work like around here. Kids ride bikes, dirt bikes, and four wheelers pretty much where ever. Except in the city, where they just ride bikes everywhere. We don't really have "neighborhoods" per se around here so I am so sorry for my inability to relate and the stupid question |
