[neverending]

When I was young a doctor would come to your house if you were sick.

We had a thing called a milkbox at the front door. You put your empty (glass) milk bottles in it and the milkman would come in his truck, take the empties and leave you fresh milk.

Halloween was a time when kids escaped from parents and went carousing by themselves, connecting with their inner demon.

There was a neighborhood theatre that showed a weekly "kiddie mattinee" on the weekends- showed a double feature (quite often 2 horror movies), cartoons, old serials, newsreels, and gave away prizes! All for $1.25.

Comic books were 12 cents and were fun to read.

Radio stations played everything from Frank Sinatra and Peggy Lee to Led Zepplin and Johnny Cash - on the same station.
