Damn Wana....you got me by 3 years? With younger kids? Oy vey! :rofl: At least you'll stay fit!


3 channels plus PBS. Apollo 11 in B&W. Walter Cronkite. HeeHaw and Emergency on Saturday nights. Walt Disney was on Sundays. Sesame Street was the educational show, but Electric Company was the "hip" show.

No internet, no video games (until Pong).....we actually had to go outside and play.

You forgot about Batman "POW" "BANG" and Giligan's Island after school.

Well Pat's 49 and Tommy just 9 and Allison is 10

Yea, but Pat has the energy of a 9 year old.

We thought we were done, until her oldest son and wife turned out to be big time losers! He has always lived with his Papa and Grandma, and get's to visit his "parents" during the summer when we go up there for a couple weeks.

My 8yr old found a casset tape in a box of stuff. she didnt understand why she couldnt shove it in the cd player. then my 2yr old son realized there's something in there to pull out!

Batman was a treat. The station that carried it was in Flint, and we'd get it every once in a while, all fuzzy and snowy.

Gilligans Island was dang good TV comedy! :rofl:

I miss Looney Tunes.
