WERE YOU BORN BEFORE 1945??
We were born before television, before penicillin, before polio shots, frozen foods, Xerox, plastics, contact lenses, Frisbees and the PILL.
We were born before radar, credit cards, split atoms, laser beams and ball point pens; before pantyhose, dishwashers, clothes dryers, electric blankets, air conditioners, drip-dry clothes - and before man walked on the moon.
We got married first and then lived together. How quaint can you be?
In our time, closets were for storing things, not "coming out of".
Bunnies were small rabbits, and rabbits were not Volkswagens.
Designer jeans were scheming blondes named Jean or Jeanne, and having a meaningful relationship meant getting along with our cousins.
We thought fast food was what you ate during lent, and outer space was the back of the Ritz Theater.
Gay meant happy and not, ... well, you know what.
We were before day care centers, group therapy and nursing homes.
We never heard of FM radio, tape decks, electric typewriters, artificial hearts, word processors, yogurt and guys wearing earrings.
For us, time sharing meant togetherness - not computers or condominiums; a "chip" meant a piece of wood; hardware meant hardware, and software wasn't a word!
The term "making out" referred to how you did on your exam.
Pizzas, McDonald's and instant coffee were unheard of.
We hit the scene when there were 5 and 10 cent stores where you bought things for 5 and 10 cents.
Sanders or Wilsons sold ice cream cones for a nickel or dime.
For one nickel you could ride a street car, make a phone call, buy a Coca-Cola or enough stamps to mail one letter and two postcards.
You could buy a new Chevy coupe for $600, but who could afford one?
A pity, too, because gas was 11 cents a gallon.
In our day, cigarette smoking was fashionable,
GRASS was mowed,
COKE was a cold drink
and POT was something you cooked in!!!!
ROCK music was a grandma's lullaby
AIDS were helpers in the Principle's office.
We were certainly not before the difference between the sexes was discovered, but we were surely before the sex change; we made do with what we had.
And we were the last generation that was so dumb as to think you needed a husband to have a baby.
CELEBRATE!
No wonder we are so confused, and there is such a generation gap today! But we survived! What better reason to celebrate!
