My MIL asked me if I had any cream rinse just the other day!Chat Icon

And I just had a conversation re: Genovese at work last week. Eckerd will always be GENOVESE!

Now how about Finast? (aka Edwards or Stop N Shop)

Re: Words that don't exactly exist anymore...

Don't have anything to add, except that I have 30 floppy disks in my drawer. I use them all the time at work, I don't think they'll every outlive their usefulness as long as old geeks like me are still around. Chat Icon

But they're the small ones - even though they don't flop, we still call them that. The big thin ones I haven't seen in 10 years. Although we do have an ancient computer here that has the big floppy drive. Chat Icon

So, let me get this straight...the words obviously still exist because we are using them...and the items still exist...so this thread doesn't exist!

Hot Tub...while still used I think its on the way out.
