I'm so old

I'M SO OLD...

I remember when you stuck safety pins into pin cushions, instead of labias and cocks.

I remember when sailors got tatoos to commemorate a cruise; now everyone wants to look like the Illustrated Man for no apparent reason.

I remember when Playboy was considered pornography.

I remember when you were proud to drive a Chevy.

I remember the Titans. Kind of...

I remember Keith Richards saying, "no thanks."

I remember the McDonalds sign saying...10 Sold.

I got you all beat. I'm old enough to watch DiMaggio on TV during the 47 World Series hit 2 HR's. I was a great fan and told my father that meant DiMaggio had 22HR's for the year. I was so young I didn't understand that WS HR's didn't count in the yearly stats.


So old that I used to cry when Vern Stephens would come up with men on base against the Yanks.

alan stanley, the defensive partner of tim horton, wins the draw in the leafs end against jean beliveau. the puck goes to bob pulford then to red kelly, who feeds a breaking george armstrong. the leafs captain takes a couple of strides past center and whips it into the empty canadien net. leafs win the stanley cup 3-1.


the cup must've been a lot heavier in those days, nobody was hoisting it over their heads.
