I'm so old I remember when they advertised: "Lucky Strike green has gone to war!"

And the cigarette package background became white instead of green. (All the available green dye was taken by the Army for
uniforms.)

I remember: "Gable's back and Garson's got him!"

I'm so old I remember thinking I was wearing a sharp pair of alligator shoes, until my wife asked me why was I barefoot.

I remember when Compuserve was the largest internet provider. a 28.8kb/s modem was top of the line unlike those 14.4 losers!

I remember when Uncle Jessie was cool beans.

I even remember when Disney was a pay channel and other than that cartoons were only on saturdays and sometimes weekday afternoons.
