The Nostaliga Thread

It's been so nice here this week weatherwise,and for some reason this popped into my head.We didn't have a washer and dryer when i was a kid.The clothes were taken to a laundry to be washed,then brought home and hung on the clothes line in the back yard.There was something about the smell of clothes dried that way that no machine can come close to.Want to share some childhood memories?

As a kid, during the summers of the early to mid 70's, riding our bikes to the store for a Spiderman comic and a glass bottle of coca-cola in the afternoon. Then in the evenings, when it was still hot and humid, catch lightning bugs or play ghost in the graveyard.

It was the 60's for me,and MAD magazine instead of Spiderman,but the rest of it,oh yes.😀

Oh yes, I loved Mad magazine with Alfred E. Nueman, then came Cracked with their guy, Sylvester P. Smythe. Then right around the time I tickled the deli-cashier;s foot was a magazine called scene. It was a step down from Playboy and Penthouse, but the foot pictures it had when they showed pics of supermodel Cheryl tiegs and star Farrah Fawcitt and the famous Dallas Cowboy and L.A.Rams cheerleaders was enough to drive any 12 year old wild!

Sneaking a look at the centerfold of Playboy was an adventure for me when I was a kid.
