Re: Do You Remember..........?
Ashleen, you are the only one I ever talked to that remembers G.E.M. stores! We shopped there all the time. (My dad worked at Andrews AFB.) How could I have forgot green stamps & Dark Shadows? Also I actually went to a drive-in movie last summer in Del.. Yes we can rewind just as soon as I finish the time machine I'm working on!
Cappy, I'm with you on: Astroboy, The Monkeys, Banana Splits,Speed Racer, In Search Of, Jawbreakers,Blowpops Jiffy popcorn,Twilight Zone,Captain Kangaroo,Top Cat & Mr Magoo!
But do you remember a show called "The Sixth Scent" ??
diggummup, Man, I did forget Drug fair, Roy Rogers restaurants (still a few around) PAC-man at 7-11,Pet rocks and the Evel Knievel stunt cycle! I had the demo derby stp racers that the hoods & doors would fly off! What part of PG did you live?
dekalb33, Yes I did know that! Mr Rodgers was also a WW2 hero. He wore the sweaters to cover up all his tattoos! Also Ed Arnold (green acres) & Lee Marvin (Big Red One Movie) were also big WW2 hero's. Hey Cappy, That's when actors/ Hollywood were not all left wing liberals!! (Please don't respond to this Cappy We all know what you will say. Just have a laugh & move on!)
Sneaky Pete, I met my first wife in Jr high. (should have left her there) I met my second wife at a party! Still going strong after 12 years! The cheapest beer I ever got at a bar was 50 cent beer night at a club called "The Stardust" in Waldorf MD. We used to go watch rock bands there every Sat. Night. We did buy Red, White & Blue beer for like $1.40 a six pack at the store! What's that about 23 cent a beer? 8)
BK, Yes, Slinkys, Gumby & Pokey, Many 8 track tapes and a ton of drive in movies!!
Hey Jeff, how about Iron City Beer with The Steelers & Pirates on the cans??

Re: Do You Remember..........?
I don't consider 32 all that old... but I was talking to someone about a record (you know, the big black disk that plays music
) and my son, whose 8 didn't have the slightest clue what I was talking about. I guess it makes sense, but it kind of caught me off guard...

Re: Do You Remember..........?
Man! rtde3 and diggumup! You guys have brought back some memories! I'm from PG County too. Lived just down the road from Andrews AFB. In fact, my mom still lives there. I graduated from Crossland HS in Temple Hills. I remember free concerts down at the Washington monument; handing out flowers to the cops in DC (I'm an old flower child); sit-ins at the P Street beach; wandering the "mall" up in Marlow Heights. Darn it! Now I want to go home and visit mom! Thanks!
