The wonder and joy I felt at age 16

The slim waistline and fitness I had at age 16

The hope for humanity I had at age 16

The feet that didn't hurt at the end of every day I had at age 16

The fleeting chance I had with girls I had at age 16?!

But above all else, the feeling I had when I first stole a can of Milwakees Best from my Grandfathers basement fridge and thought to myself "Oh man! I CAN'T WAIT TO GROW UP!"

So many good things in the past, I can only hope for half as many in the days I have left....

Prost!

Jerry Garcia

Reading back over the thread this honestly made me catch my breath... Why is it that something so dear to my heart missed my knee jerk, gut reaction list?! 20 years....

Such a long, long time to be gone....

 

[ghohn]

Pre-smart phone era life.

The frequency, speed and bluntness at which people bow out of real conversations is both alarming and rude.

 

[GluStick]

Ben and Jerrys Vermonty Python ice cream. Those little fudge cows with the coffee liquor ice cream... why do they always take the good things away from us...

 

[gratus fermentatio]

Clean water, clean air & mercury free fish.

 

[Billy-Klubb]

Clean water, clean air & mercury free fish.

who are you? @BUCKNUTS ? and they put the mercury in the fish so you know what temp the water is. little known fact: you can use any muskie as a candy thermometer, trout for yeast pitching temps, and catfish are great for mash temps!

I'm 63 and I don't remember any of that.

Sanitation is for sissies.

[Wolfbayte]

That loving feeling. Whoa oh. That loving feeling.

 

[Qhrumphf]

Trial by combat.

That's why they should bring it back! When I was a kid in the 60's, my Dad owned some beach property on Lake Michigan. We used to go there on the weekends & bury dead fish that would wash up on shore in bucket loads. We weren't allowed to go into the water either, it was all the pollution in the water that had killed the fish. Things are much better now, but I still think there's a long, long way to go.
Regards, GF.

what I think is really amazing is that this statement, even pulled out of context, works a great number of topics ranging from pollution to politics to industry to social behavior to brewing beer in the home. sorry @Remmy/@andycr but you got bumped in my signature.

 

[Zepth]

Bring back Nickelodeon, Are you afraid of the dark. Loved that when I was a kid.

What about "You can't say that on television"?

Trial by combat.

This dude tried that recently because of a vehicle licensing dispute. The court didn't allow it.

I wish they'd bring back those good old can openers. Like the ones found on pocket knives and multi-tools. Twice now I've had the floccing gears bend out of shape on the "standard" style modern society uses, and then they don't do anything but gather dust.

Seriously people it's a damn can opener. It worked for decades. Don't mess with it!

 

[Wolfbayte]

the Bernie Mac Show.

You mean church key style where it punches out a portion of the lid like on the big cans of Juicy Juice? You cant bring those back, the lids will all look like ninja stars and children will cut themselves. Think of the children!

More like this little guy, but with a more functional handle. Works great and there's nothing to break. Deceptively fast in the hands of skilled users too.

 

[Melana]

Respect. Oh and stores that sell quality American made goods.

 

[Hamaki]

Quality American made goods

Three martini lunches

I go home on lunch.

I don't drink martinis.

But I don't not drink.

 

[SnakeRidge]

Three martini lunches

I thought they just used to leave for lunch and never come back? I want that to be a thing again.

Time is an illusion. Lunchtime doubly so.
