My Grand kids looking at me with puzzled looks when I tell them when I was their age we only had 3 TV channels. And 2 of them were the same thing. And we had to actually go over to the TV to change the channel. I don't think they believe me.

And we had to actually go over to the TV to change the channel

Those were the Dark Times. We barely existed above savages.

My younger sister used to steal the tuner knob so she could watch what she wanted.... so I dug out some plyers and changed the channels that way.... good times.....  ;D

Yeah, as I keep telling my kid when he asked what we did before Youtube, Netflix and video games.

I don't like to think about it. We actually had to go outdoors when we were kids. The horror!

I remember putting a magnet on my first tv - a 13 inch Zenith color tv from about 1970 - and thinking how cool it looked as the colors swirled around on screen. Didn't know it was permanent :)

Last Saturday my 1st cousin Helen died. The next day my 1st cousin Edwin died. Out of twenty-one 1st cousins on my father's side of the family only eight of us are left, and only three are older than I am.

It makes me wonder how much time I have left.  :-\
