you could smoke in the back of greyhound buses (damn what parties we had...lost my virginity in the back of one)
herpes was the bad sexual disease
our president was chopping wood and the first lady was famous for her blow jobs back in hollywood
cheap used cars could take out a brick wall and still drive home
music was played not composed on a computer
cigarettes were $1 a pack and bars had nickle nights

I can remember,my father argueing with the man in the store,
because,he wanted $5.00 a pr. for my Keds.The drinking age in NY
was 18,and they never asked for an ID.Driving home from NY to
Conn. was a bitch.Oh Yeah,I graduated in 1961,so I wasn't a
teenager in the '80s!I was "pissed when gas, for my lawnmower,
went to $.25 a gal.I had 8 grasscutting jobs & that cut into my
profit.Did someone say "Old as Dirt"? Irish
P.S. I was 17 in 1961!

"Please excuse _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ from school yesterday as she was sick and couldn't get off the pot"!...........from drinking and smokin the previous night and not getting in the house till 4:30am[ish].........lmfao!

*singing.........."Those.....were.....the.....days my friends, we thought they'd never end....we'd sing and dance [and smoke and drink] forever and a day......We lived the life we choosed......we'd fight and never lose....those were the days....oh yes, those were the days"!*

Not to mention the fact that an "8" has a better hourglass figure than a "9".

Remember the sneakers with the colored triangles on the sides that you could change out to match your outfit? I can't remember what brand they were ... but I think I had the triangles in every color.

Cheyanne---Your mention of Boones Farm,reminded me.I had
(I say,had.He was killed in a motorcycle accident)a riding buddy,
who had a nickname,of Boomer.His parents had a beautiful farm.
They died,and left it to him.The last time,that I was at his beautiful
farmhouse,His "chopper" & my other riding buddies,'39 Knuckle-
Head,were parked in the living room,all of the furniture,had been
burned in the fireplace.The livingroom floor,was strewn with empty,beer cans.The mailbox was an old Honda,with the side of the gastank opening for mail.Over the mailbox,was the "new"
name.Booms Farm!I guess that he invented it from the wine!I had
some crazy,but good friends!(Old days!) Irish
