DID YOU KNOW...    

Those who were born in the 30's to the 60's are the last generations who played in the street.  During our childhood we "walked" over a mile a day when we played & played "hide & seek" outside at night with no worries or fear of anything bad happening to us.       

We are the first generations who played video games and the last to record songs off the radio onto a cassette tape.  We learned how to program a VCR before anyone else, we were the first to play from Atari to Nintendo...We are the generation of Tom & Jerry, Looney Toons, & Captain Kangaroo and  the Road Runner. We traveled in cars without seat belts or air bags, lived without cell phones and caller ID.  We did not have fax machines, flat screens, surround sound,  I pods, Facebook, Twitter, computers or the internet, and through it all we had a great time.       

Now send this on to those who remember all these things and those who are too young to know what maybe the better times were really like. Ah the good ole days.......
