The dimmer switch should never have been moved from the floorboard, by the way. 

 

 

I think that's another sign that I may be old? Now, get off my damned lawn. 

Could be worse an think the started peddle should have never been moved out of the floor...

Buying your first rifle, a Nylon 66, for $59 at the Goodyear Tire store then buying your second one, a Remington 572 Fieldmaster, at the BF Myers furniture store in Goodlettsville.

How about 4 track tapes that was pre 8-track, my wife was a keypunch operator, the #3 washtub on the back porch was our Hot tub, going to the Western Auto and buying a box of 22 shorts for $0.29 and I was 9 and no-one questioned that. The way I heard the balls floating in the bathtub was if they floated like a cork you couldn't get the job done anymore. That is the family version of it anyway. I prefer my dimmer switch on the floor and the starter button on the floor also. I also prefer a POTUS and congress that gave a crap about this beautiful country.

When DUIs were misdemeanors (I knew people that had 10 or more), cops often drank on the job, beer cans had pull tabs that could be fashioned into fishin' lures and Staff was a popular beer (at least in my neighborhood).

When you wished you could gamble as good as Maverick, dress as good as Paladin, hunt BGs as good as Josh Randall and would give anything to take Miss Kitty upstairs.

If you can only remember pull tabs, you're not old. Don't you know what a church key is?

But, do you balls float in the bath tub?

 

No. Solid brass doesn't float.
