Wonder if the started the convenience store chain we have here. Kum and Gogh

I ran 100 back then to keep it off the tires. Over 100,000 miles with no problem. We didn’t know any better back then.

Ours was at a river bank on the Current River. Grilling, swimming, drinking, and——-well, you know the rest.

Had the 6X9’s in the back, but no amp. I did keep a big enough cooler to hold 2 cases with ice though. :thumbsup:

My first new car was a ‘72 Duster. First modification I made to it was some Gabriel High Jackers, with ET spun aluminum’s, and a set of L-60’s. Next was the Craig Powerplay. Most powerful 8 track stereo at the time. I think it pumped out an incredible 7 watts. :thumbsup:

Friend of mine had some kind of miniature lap rat she named “Poopie”. Poopie was a wino, and would drink wine right out of her glass. Her and her husband smoked some of those left handed cigarettes. Poopie also like to eat the roaches. Dog lived be almost 20.

My hearing has suffered from 50 years of working in shops with overhead refrigeration units, saws, and grinders running all day. Has nothing to do with listening to Edgar Winters, Frankenstein, on my Craig Power Play at full volume. :lol: :steering:

We didn’t have AR’s or Glock’s back then. We did have semi automatic rifles, shotguns, and pistols. I, and most of my friends knew where they were kept, but also knew better than to mess with them.

And praying in school was declared unconstitutional in 1962. I grew up in a pretty religious community. After that ruling, the rest of my elementary school years, we had a “moment of silence”, after the pledge.

I’m 68. My Dad was a WW II vet, as were most of my friends fathers. My Dad also worked for the Army, Bell Aircraft Expert, and growing up close to Scott Air Force Base, many in my school were military kids. You bet we were taught to respect the flag!!

When I was a kid, we faced the flag, put our right hand over our heart, and recited the pledge of allegiance. Then we bowed our heads, and said a prayer. Even the ornery kids showed respect while we did these. There weren’t school shootings back then.

We had the best cars, best music, and the best looking women!!!!

Granted, there are some jerk cops, but for the most part they’re mirrors. You get back what you give.

Couldn’t pay me enough to be a cop in today’s atmosphere. My nephew is one. Canine officer to boot. I’m very proud of him. He would go out of his way to help anyone.

Saw them in concert when I was 14.

Totally agree. If me being a believer in the end is wrong, oh well. As you said, it made me a better person. For those who don’t, and I’m right, hate to be them.

I grew up in the long haired hippie, dope smoking, free love, rebelling, never will amount to anything generation. The way some of you look down on these young people, is nothing compared to what we went through. All in all, I think we turned out pretty good. I have friends that complain about...

You guys brag all you want. Gal asked me who I thought I was going to please with that thing. I told her me!!

That we did!! I was a big fan of both.

Both at close range are deadly. Difference is, buckshot will penetrate a wall, and possible kill someone in an adjoining room, where birdshot won’t.

Any high powered rifle, and many handguns also fall into that category. The majority of the rifles in my collection are considerably more powerful than my AR’s. I have always promoted a 12 gauge, pump shotgun, with birdshot as the best home defense weapon, for the very reasons you stated. Number...

While this is all true, the point of my statement was that, regardless of what type of weapons were available at the time, it has absolutely nothing to do with the 2A.

You have every right to your opinion. I have several friends that feel the same as you. Don't like guns. Don't hunt. That does not remove my right to do both. The second amendment has absolutely nothing to do with hunting. when that amendment was written, the firearms were ball and musket...

When my son turned 16, I bought his first car. When I gave it to him, I told him it had a full tank of gas, fresh oil change and tune up, 6 months of insurance, 1 year of license, new tires, and a pack of condoms in the glove box. Fully equipped, and ready to go. I also told him, when any of...

I’ll have to agree. I couldn’t be happier with how my son and daughter-in-law have raised these boys.

I grew up in the 60’s/70’s. I remember very well what the previous generation said about us. I catch myself thinking the same things about this one, but every now and then, I meet a young person that restores my faith. I see it as our job to do what we can to influence these young people, and...

Haven’t brought my Roku tv to my new house yet. Only internet I have is the hot spot on my phone. About the only thing I miss is YouTube videos.

Right there with you. Ditched my satellite years ago. Right now all I have is an antenna. I watch a lot of Grit and MEtv.

I remember all, including all the added ones. But then again, I’m so old, I can remember when the Dead Sea first got sick!! :lol:
