Concerned About Growing Old?

I lived in a town where the closest neighbor was a mile away and the bus ride was 7 miles. The General store was also the Post office and the local saloon and no they didn't call it a bar. The principal taught the 8th graders. It was awesome

I remember my grandma sending me to the post office with a nickel to buy her 2 stamps and me a Tootsie roll

My first "candy" was honey on a pacifier! Of course later we found out you should not give honey to little babies. I survived somehow!

The oldest computer was owned by Adam and Eve. It was an Apple just one byte and everything crashed

Yes, and now we are facing the "fix" : )

my first experience with candy was honey horehound, and wintergreen after-dinner mints.

Then I discovered a candy store a few blocks away, began collecting discarded soda bottles for refund (There were a lot of bottles on the roadsides back then) and the wheels fell off.
