    Back in my day we had a 9" black & white tv in a huge living room. Like watching a postage stamp.
    Back in my day I had to walk to and from school, 2 blocks. Unless it rained, or was really hot, or really cold, or just a slow day. Then someone would come home and take me so I wouldn't have to walk. Did I say I was the baby in a large family?

    Back in my day, the gas station closest to my house gave out free mugs any time you bought more than $10 worth of gas, and I was always sad because I never was able to spend $10 on gas and I never got one of those mugs

    Back in my day, the local convenience store would sell me cigarettes for my mom because mom was friends with the cashier.
