Ha! I remember the version with William Conrad and an F-15. Even as a young child, I was a night owl, and I would watch TV into the wee hours when I could. I felt a sense of victory when I could stay awake to the sign-off, especially KCRA Sacramento's "High Flight" followed by the annoying "Bluebird of Happiness" song in the 1980s. I also felt a sense of pride when I was young and I could outlast HBO programming to its sign off when HBO wasn't 24 hours yet. | |||

I still have several of the Snap-On cheesecake calendars stacked up on a nail in my garage. The oldest one dates back to 1986. | |||

Lots of good ones mentioned. Just a couple others I remember are: Blackjack gum Wooden phone booths Bakery trucks selling pastries, like ice cream trucks, on the street Gas Wars - saw gas as low as 10¢ a gallon 15¢ hamburgers Paying $125 for a used ‘56 Chevy ____________________________________________________________ Money may not buy happiness...but it will certainly buy a better brand of misery A man should acknowledge his losses just as gracefully as he celebrates his victories Remember, in politics it's not who you know...it's what you know about who you know | |||
