    Oh boy, I was a child in the 70's and it was wonderful. Doing the best I can for our child - different times but we still have smiles :)

    When I was a kid we used to see burgers that price and hot dogs 6 for a dollar. Then occasionally they would even go on sale! We gobbled a lot of them. Pop was .10 per bottle but one local bottler sold at .08.

    Sadly, the 70's brought the end of the muscle car era.

    I think our future may be just like the 70’s.

    The 70's...what did I do in the 70's? I don't remember much of it, so it must've been fun!

    I was a 17 year old kid pumping gas in 73. Believe me I was the reason gas was rationed and so expensive. Yup, those idiots ragged on me for all that.
    If I remember correctly, when I started pumping gas in 72, it was kinda like 29.9.

    Don’t think that’s quite how Jack Straw meant it.

    Anyone still wearing the classic scent of the 70’s
    My dad worked in the aquanet factory, same company, so we smelled like brut and momma kept her perm crisp with aquanet.
