First Super Bowl - 1967 - I was a Senior in H.S. We had a party at Eddie Bayouth's house. Scandalous: his dad fixed us ALCOHOLIC DRINKS all day. I had to spend the night with a friend because there was no way I could go home. My mom would have killed me!
I remember.....

Hollorith Machine? Someone posted it.
I wonder if anyone had the SRA reading program in grammer school with different colors for different levels.
Yes! We had it. I loved that. I was always challenging myself to go to the next higher level......umm wasn't Purple (maybe) the highest level?
Yeah....I was brown for too long.
I was short on patients then and short on patients now as anyone and tell by my skimming posts and getting them wrong.
10-4! I was "Mister Donut" - LOL! I chose that moniker because I had bought a Mister Donut van and converted it:

Can't leave the Rocky and Bullwinkle Show out of cartoons. Aesop's Fables, professor Peabody and the time machine, royal canadian mounted policeman dudley doright and the ever attractive Nell and the evil Boris Badenough.
And a copy of Mad magazine was heaven.

I remember my dad dropping me off at school in his brand new baby blue 1971 Pontiac Grand Prix and hearing the "ohhh's and ahhh's" from the other kids in the playground.
My mom's brother owned a gas station. My older brother, when he was about four or five years old would hang out there sometimes, watching what was going on. We always had maps because they were free at service stations. My mom at that time had a 1949 Studebaker automobile. One day my brother while at home gets the idea to fill my moms gas tank up. So out came the garden hose and my mom got a full tank. Just like Uncle Sonny.
This is what I've beening rolling up to my girl's job (daycare) past 6 years, got some ohs and ahs from her co-workers, too.
Just buying my time folks, still looking for an illustration of what my first post was about, I checked out gils and others responses but I dont think we are talking about the same thing.
Bless ya'll for putting up with ol'

Oh yeah! I have the boxed set of Rocky and Bullwinkle DVD's - loved that cartoon. And Mad was a favorite. When I was in 5th grade, my teacher caught me reading a Mad magazine and she confiscated it. The following summer, I got a call from the principal to come down to the school. "Roh-roh!" I thought. So I went down there and he handed me a new issue of Mad, courtesy of my teacher. He said my teacher had read my magazine and decided to start using it to teach satire.
Pedal cars. Clunky metal.
Aaw, those were every russian kid's dream! Except we had the metal ones, with sharp edges on the inside and all.
