    .....all the songs I loved as a kid are now being sampled in new pop songs....

    .... I remember when only rich people had touch tone phones....

    ....trees I planted as a child are getting old with me...

    I remember walking to the Saturday matinee at the move theater paying my 35 cents to get in, a nickle for a bag of popcorn and 2 cents for a winner sucker.

    Remember when penny candy was a penny?

    Last week I ran across a Hayes 1200 baud modem in the box of old computer stuff . . . .

    Senior year in high school Radio Shack came out with their first four function calculator: $119

    In a related note: I took high school physics using a slide rule.

    I remember watching Tom Terrific cartoons on Captain Kangaroo.
