How about when Modells was more of a Department Store or a "five and dime"...I bought my very first album there..it was 1979 and it was Fleetwood Mac Rumors.

TOTALLY remember that! You would walk in and there would be mosquito netting all over the place!!

I remember

-Playworld
-being so excited getting my Kodak disc camera
-making emergency breakthroughs with the operator all the time to friend's lines since there was no call-waiting
-HATING that my best friend's number started with 889 - KILLER on the rotary dial!
-10 cent phone calls
-TSS store
-smoking on airplanes
-45 records
-holding my yellow SONY boombox up to the radio or to Mtv to tape a song and being all pizzed when the radio dj would talk through the whole intro
-when the Wizard of Oz came on every year and it was a big night
-going to my parent's friend's house because they had the first cable movie channel - I think it was called WHT?

Re: OLD things you remember

When my mom was in college, people smoked in class. That was during my lifetime. She got her degree when I was little.

Another memory--Cassingles--Cassette Singles that were sold in record stores. They were near the register b/c they made good impulse purchases. My friends and I were talking about Cassingles on New Years' Eve.

We went to the Pocono's PA back in Jan 2004 & you were able to smoke there. I was shocked to see that.

When you actually had to get up to change the channel on the TV.

I would lay on the floor and my mom would go next, next, next...

She would flip out if I spun the dial really fast.



omg --I remember this!! also, Rotary telephones!!
