You remember when HBO was the only movie channel on cable and the box was brown with a cord with a wheel on one side and a switch on the other.



HBO? I had WHT movie network, or something like that.



HBO was channel 6 and they showed the EXORCIST in 1975 - the year we got cable.




Oh please, you were spoiledChat Icon ... 1976!!!!

We begged, and begged, pleaded, prayed, did yard work, washed dad's car... everything short of walking to school uphill both ways in the snowChat Icon and we didn't get cable... brown box, HBO Channel 6 until 1982Chat Icon or so... I just remember "Private Benjamin" and "Spies" being one of the first movies... over and over and over againChat Icon

Wasn't 38 the Playboy Channel?Chat Icon Chat Icon

You can remember when cars did not have side view mirrors on BOTH sides of the car and when all seat belts were lap belts only.

NO.....

Scott is making chopped liver as we speak though..

But here's the crabmeat dip recipe...

2 6oz cans lump crabmeat (drained well)
2 Hardboiled eggs chopped fine
1/2 cup flat leaf parsley chopped fine
1/3 cup mayo
1/2 Teaspoon Worchester sauce
1/2 Teaspoon Lemon Juice

Mix the last 4 incredients together really well. Then add the eggs and crabmeat. If it's a little too dry add more mayo...

Does this mean that this thread will get moved to food now?
