Some thoughts on how quickly times have changed!

I love movies with rotary phones! It really is amazing how communication has changed so dramatically over the last 20 years. Now everyone has a cell phone or PDA, it seems. New laws have even been written to remind people not to do stupid stuff like text while driving!

You'd love my sister's home then. She still has a rotary phone and the furniture that she bought when she got married in 1954. It looks like it just came off the showroom floor. When I visit, I tell my friends that I'll be in the time warp.

I agree, these old b/w movies with their subtle horrors were eerie!! More than the gory stuff of latter decades.

I find it even funnier that you consider the 60's as a time period in which you would've liked to have lived because that's my generation. LOL

I was born in the 60s (1965), but don't remember much of it. Sadly enough, my parents were not too fond of the flower power area.

Some things I do remember is the food my mother used to prepare for birthday parties, or New Years those days. Strange stuff, like hedgehogs formed out of raw ham and salt sticks, or toadstools make of a boiled egg, and one half of a tomato. So funny how even our eating habits change with the passing of time! LOL
