Subj: Comments
Made In The Year 1955: (S532c)
From: ICohen on 3/27/2007
"I'll tell you one thing, if
things keep going the way they
are, it's going to be impossible
to buy a week's groceries
for $20."
"Have you seen the new cars coming
out next year? It won't
be long before $2000 will only
buy a used one."
"If cigarettes keep going up
in price, I'm going to quit. A
quarter a pack is ridiculous."
"Did you hear the post office
is thinking about charging a
dime just to mail a letter?"
"If they raise the minimum wage
to $1, nobody will be able
to hire outside help at the
store."
"When I first started driving,
who would have thought gas
would someday cost 29 cents
a gallon. Guess we'd be better
off leaving the car in the garage."
"Kids today are impossible.
Those duck tail hair cuts make
it impossible to stay groomed.
Next thing you know, boys
will be wearing their hair as
long as the girls."
"I'm afraid to send my kids to
the movies any more. Ever
since they let Clark Gable get
by with saying 'damn' in
'Gone with the Wind,' it seems
every new movie has either
"hell" or "damn" in it.
"I read the other day where some
scientist thinks it's
possible to put a man on the
moon by the end of the century.
They even have some fellows
they call astronauts preparing
for it down in Texas."
"Did you see where some baseball
player just signed a
contract for $75,000 a year
just to play ball? It would
not surprise me if someday they'll
be making more than the
president."
"I never thought I'd see the
day all our kitchen appliances
would be electric. They
are even making electric type-
writers now."
"It's too bad things are so tough
nowadays. I see where a
few married women have
to work to make ends meet."
"It won't be long before young
couples are going to have
to hire someone to watch
their kids so they can both work."
"Marriage doesn't mean a thing
any more; those Hollywood
stars seem to be getting divorced
at the drop of a hat."
"I'm just afraid the Volkswagen
car is going to open the
door to a whole lot of foreign
business."
"Thank goodness I won't live
to see the day when the
Government takes half our income
in taxes. I sometimes
wonder if we are electing the
best people to congress."
"The drive-in restaurant is convenient
in nice weather,
but I seriously doubt they will
ever catch on."
"There is no sense going to Lincoln
or Omaha anymore for
a weekend. It costs nearly
$15 a night to stay in a hotel."
"No one can afford to be sick
any more; $35 a day in the
hospital is too rich for my
blood."
"If they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it."

Subj: When
I Was A Kid (S504b)
From: LABLaughsAdult on 9/12/2006
When I was a kid, adults used
to bore me to tears with their
tedious diatribes about how
hard things were when they were
growing up; what with walking
twenty-five miles to school
every morning ... uphill BOTH
ways .. yadda, yadda, yadda
And I remember promising myself
that when I grew up, there
was no way I was going to lay
a bunch of crap like that on
kids about how hard I had it
and how easy they've got it!
But now that...
I'm over the ripe old age of
thirty, I can't help but look
around and notice the youth
of today. You've got it so easy!
I mean, compared to my childhood,
you live in a darn Utopia!
And I hate to say it but you
kids today don't know how good
you've got it!
I mean, when I was a kid we didn't
have The Internet. If
we wanted to know something,
we had to go to the library
and look it up ourselves, in
the card catalog!!
There was no email! We
had to actually write somebody a
letter ... with a pen!
Then you had to walk all the way
across the street and put it
in the mailbox and it would
take like a week to get there!
There were no MP3's or Napsters!
You wanted to steal music,
you had to hitchhike to the
record store and shoplift it
yourself! Or you had to
wait around all day to tape it off
the radio, and the DJ'd usually
talk over the beginning and
mess it all up!
And talk about hardship?
You couldn't just download porn!
You had to steal it from your
brother or bribe some homeless
dude to buy you a copy of "Hustler"
at the 7-11! Those were
your options!
We didn't have fancy stuff like
Call Waiting! If you were
on the phone and somebody else
called, they got a busy signal,
that's it!
And we didn't have fancy Caller
ID Boxes either! When the
phone rang, you had no idea
who it was! It could be your
school, your mom, your boss,
your bookie, your drug dealer,
a collections agent, you just
didn't know!!! You had to
pick it up and take your chances,
mister!
We didn't have any fancy Sony
Playstation video games with
high-resolution 3-D graphics!
We had the Atari 2600! With
games like "Space Invaders"
and "asteroids" and the graphics
sucked! Your guy was a
little square! You actually had to
use your imagination!
And there were no multiple levels or
screens, it was just one screen
forever! And you could never
win. The game just kept
getting harder and harder and faster
and faster until you died!
... Just like LIFE!
When you went to the movie theater
there no such thing as
stadium seating! All the
seats were the same height! If a
tall guy or some old broad with
a hat sat in front of you
and you couldn't see, you were
just screwed!
Sure, we had cable television,
but back then that was only
like 15 channels and there was
no onscreen menu and no
remote control! You had
to use a little book called a TV
Guide to find out what was on!
And when it came to channel surfing,
you had to actually
walk over to the TV to change
the channel, and there was no
Cartoon Network either!
You could only get cartoons on
Saturday Morning. Do you
hear what I'm saying!?! We had
to wait ALL WEEK for cartoons!
And we didn't have microwaves
... If we wanted to heat
something up, we had to use
the stove or go build a real
fire .. imagine that!
If we wanted popcorn, we had to use
that stupid JiffyPop thing and
shake it over the stove
forever like an idiot.
That's exactly what I'm talking
about! You kids today
have got it too easy.
You're spoiled.

Subj: Take
Time (S556b)
By Floyd Brown
From: LABLaughs@LABLaughs.com on 9/10/2007
Take time to learn,
It is a sign of
greatness.
Take time to think,
It is a source
of power.
Take time to plan,
It is the first
step to fulfillment.
Take time to work,
It is the price
of success.
Take time to dream,
It is the fountain
of achievement.
Take time to act,
It is an expression
of belief in oneself.
Take time to give,
It is a symbol
of maturity.
Take time to smile,
It is the window
of the soul.
Take time to love,
It is a gift of
God.

"Twenty years from now you will
be more disappointed by the
things that you didn't do than
by the ones you did do. So
throw off the bowlines. Sail
away from the safe harbor.
Catch the trade winds in your
sails. Explore. Dream.
Discover." - Mark Twain

opportunities are hidden
among the seemingly insignificant
events of life. If we do
not pay attention to these
events, we can easily miss the
opportunities." - Jim Rohn

Then do not squander time, for that
