Really? 'Natch'? Right up there with 'foodie' as words that make people cringe.
U a foodie, bro?

The climate stayed the same.
Renewing your TAC membership before you could enter the Boston Marathon.

A train being pulled by a steam locomotive, a real train, not a tourist attraction one.
A "rag man," a guy who went from house to house with a horse drawn wagon filled with rags he'd gotten from people that he sold to some place that made the rags into "new" material.
TV stations signing off at night with the national anthem and coming back on the same way.
Getting only one TV channel.
Heating the house with a coal furnace.
Doctors making house calls.

Hungry Man TV DInners.....especially salisbury steak. I used to be so psyched when my parents went out for the night because they'd buy these and then we'd eat them, as intended, in front of the TV. I remember you would have to peel back the aluminum foil over certain parts of the tray for even cooking.
Huh? They still make Hungry Man. I see them in every grocery store. I'm more of a Lean Cuisine man, myself.
A note about Hungry Man. They're still the biggest frozen dinners (or close to it) but they're not half the size of a typical restaurant meal. No wonder America has gotten so fat.
Second, related note: I remember when most people were reasonably trim.
Watching commercials.
Watching the scrambled HBO channel waiting for that one nip shot.
Donuts. Old fashioned donuts. YummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmYummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmYummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmYummmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm
Old fashioned donuts are the best. So sugary and yummy.
Waiting 45 minutes for my song to play on the juke box.
There was no such thing as Television refrigerator or washing machine
!81 runners in the Boston Marathon with no women, or water or splits except for the leaders.
The phone was on the wall and was answered by an operator
Milk was in a bottle delivered by a horse.
It was over 80 years ago!
The 3 networks covered the Mercury, Gemini and early Apollo missions non-stop. The astronauts were heroes. We knew their faces and names. The TV news guys (was it really all male?) were big stars whom we trusted.
And day-time World Series games. We had transistor radios in school. The cool teachers got a TV into the classroom.
If you were driving in to California from another state you had to stop at border inspection stations where they would confiscate YOUR FRUIT!
You could drive iright nto Juarez. No problema.
Banana seat bikes with sissy bars.
Playing baseball in the street and yelling CAR when necessary.
45's
PF flyers.
