Wow - way to get my energy level up first thing in the morning. Those annoyed me so much that now I'm going to get up and start cleaning while my husband is still in bed. Wait a minute. . That doesn't seem right!

If we could merge what was right with the 50's with what is right with the 2000's and discard all that is wrong, life would not be carbon copy of the 50's or a carbon copy of life now either.

Can you imagine what would happen if Chase and Sanborn ran that ad today? Wow!! They are kind of funny in hindsight but having grown up with some of them and with my grandparents they are not surprising.

After my surgery Coke was the only thing I could keep down. I had to let it go flat and I don't drink soda much at all any other time maybe once every month if that

Amen!
And yet, black GI's came back from WW2 and still had to sit in the back of the bus and could not vote, in some states. And Japanese-American citizens came back from internment camps, where they had been sent with no due process, to find their homes, farms, and businesses belonged to someone else now.

I for one am glad those days are in the past.
you and me both. I do wish we could keep what was good and get rid of the rest. Manners is one thing I miss.
