Your mom was just mean.

My mom is/was just to sweet to us boys.

My dad was a thunder hammer. It was ok to actually kick your kid in the ass back then. I flew around 6 feet.

She was mean. Other kids got to take their lunch to school in a lunch box like these:

I got one like this along with the threat of instant dismemberment if I "lost" it.

Had a couple of those suits back in the 70's, thankfully no plaid.

We called them tennis shoes and yeah, I had athletes foot.

Everything but #7 and #20. I have never seen all those furniture pieces together in one place and I usually avoided watching The Price Is Right.

A lot of that stuff is still perfectly usable.

My first job was at a Restaurant, maybe 14 years old. Had mowed lawns and scooped snow previously for pocket money.

Was required to buy a pair of leather wingtip shoes and decent clothes, I remember all those small holes in the wingtips sure collected lots of spilled food. The holes were tough to clean out. Pretty much had to use toothpicks!

The owner was also a cross between a horse and donkey. Fun times, but it paid well in the late 1960's.

Under cabinet mount much cooler and space saving.

One of the very first items I installed in our apartment just before we got married. I had forgotten about so many of those type things.

Got to admit it. I had those suits. Even worse, I had a couple pairs of the "platform shoes" all the girfriends insisted I wear.

Funny thing we now just use a hand cranker in 2023

Think we paid about a dollar to 1.25 a pack

In the '50s, my mom paid about $2.50 for a carton of ten packs.

When I was young we used one just like this.
