When I was a kid we always had older cars, so we had one of the last cars with an 8-Track. .


8 tracks were like Star Trek is the
here and now. A stereo in your car?
How could it get any better.

Now you are making me feel old AZD I remember the first car I was ever in that had an 8 track. It was a huge improvement over the 45RPM players that you could get for a car. As you can imagine they would skip a lot on a bumpy road.


You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really?

Well, I gotta help bring the millenials along at the courthouse so I am tired feeling old alone. lol

It was so great having the 8-Track and AM/FM. It was only 100 miles but back in the double-nickel days and being a kid, it took nearly 3 hours and felt like 10. Before this we had AM radios only. Really bad AM radios. Kids today do not know how good they got it.

Growing up in a small town 100's of miles from the metropolitan area we couldn't pick up any rock'n'roll station in the daytime. Could hardly wait until dark and then we could usually find a rock'n'roll station, only AM then.

Who? Where do find these people nobody
has heard of.

How about Chuck Yeager, there's a real American
icon and hero. He might be the longest living
test pilot of all time. The guy was fearless in the
early days of jets. He claims he can fly anything
if you show him how the controls work. He says
he should have augered in (they never use the
word crashed) 40 times and never did. A real
mans man if there ever was one. 94 years old
and still kicking.

He rose thru the ranks to general with just a HS
education. He received just about every award
possible in his military career. He shot down
5 German fighters in one day in WWII. And,
oh yeah, he broke the sound barrier for first
time in history.
