How many do you remember?
06. Home milk delivery in glass bottles, with Cardboard stoppers.
On the ranch, home milk delivery was in a bucket. In town, the milkman
brought it right into the kitchen and put it in the fridge.
11. Telephone numbers with a word prefix ... (Drexel-5505)
Our phone number had 4 numbers. our ring was 1 long & 1 short.
26. The Fuller Brush man
I helped pay for school as a Fuller Brush Lady.
35. 35 cent-a-gallon gasoline
We had two 500 gallon tanks, but I vaguely remember it being less than a
quarter per gallon in town.
7. Having a weapon in school meant being caught with a slingshot.
Every truck in the school parking lot had at least one rifle in the back
window.
51. A foot of snow was a dream come true.
A foot of snow meant no electricity and someone had to dig out the
machine shed so the road could be plowed.
Am I now an official O.F.?
