Hey I am not that old and I remember those days and also days of going to the river to swim and being able to leave your togs on the bushes to dry while you went home to get something to eat and then coming back down and your togs, towel and bag you brought them in was there. Often I would go for a swim and leave my purse and towel and watch and clothes there without worrying about them being stolen

Was that before or after the construction of stonehenge ????

I resemble that remark!! Just kidding.

I lived in the days when people from ALL walks of life could live in harmony (I was brought up in the projects) with no drugs, gunfire, violence. Boy times have sure changed, haven't they???

Yep, they have changed. The world has changed so much, and there will be no going back. Shame really.

Wom, I can remember when bicycles had coaster brakes and one speed, YOU!I also remember whem telephone numbers had exchanges at the beginning not all numbers and the phones were one color, BLACK! and had the rotary dial. Those were the days, my friend!

I never got my first bike until I was twelve. Before that we made "Billy Carts" out of scavanged timber fruit boxes and old pram wheals from the local rubbish tip. Boy....I had some real prangs in those things falling apart half way down a big hill !!!! Plenty of skinned knees. LOL

I'm glad to see Bucky proving there is life after American Idol!!!

I remember when the stores used to all close on Sunday. I also remember a time when people didn't expect the world to change to suit them, they changed to make the best of the world they had. People were more tolerant of each other and saying "I Do" meant you really did and it really could last forever.

I didn't know he was on American Idol. Silly me. You know when I first heard this song I thought it was being sung by a much older man. His voice doesn't match his picture, although he is sure a handsome guy.

In an Australian sort of a way....yes.
Brody's Mom could probably warn you of the perils of associating with Aussies

I am only 26 and even I remember some times like that.... no bike helmets..... stores were closed on Sundays.... you went out to play in the morning and didn't come home till dinner time.... you didn't always make the team.... remember banana seats on your bike and handle bar tassels lol

Of course Bucky is only 30.

I saw that video the other day and thought his voice sounded lots deeper than it did on American Idol. It's lots better. I wondered if it was because it was recorded in a studio where they can do lots of things to the voice. I always liked him on American Idol though.

I do not live in the US and some things I remember them myself, Shops here todate still close on Sundays!!

One thing that simply astonish me is time! Seems like time had a different VALUE!? Like before in a day you could easily get bored now.............you rush from one thing to another!

I remember school holidays, with the bicycle (what helmet??????? still it is non obligatory!!) till 1 in the morning!!! And everyone on the street with the key in the lock....so you don't bother to ring the bell you open and shout out the name of the occupant!

Well I know that we still are a relatively safe place on earth but we're having problems now .........too many illigal imigrants!!!! I'm not a racist but I heard a story which well quite shocked me. Before you get married the girls make a hen's party and the boys prepare a bachelor's party. As always the boys go tend over the top. Normally they get the groom naked, tie him to somewere and eighter just leave him there for a couple of hours or so!!!!

One time they got this guy naked, tied him to the door of his mother in law and rang the Bell!!!!!!! lol

In this case his friends tied him to this monument on a roundabout, naked and left him there until they went for a coffee, when they came back in an hour or so they found this guy in desperation!!! He was raped by two emigrants!!!!!!! He did not get married.......just ended in a mental hospital for the time being.

There is good and bad to it all I guess.

Especially that little biatch, Nelly Olson.

Locally, some 13 year old kid just died after taking a header on his skateboard.

Those were the days....when you looked at a stunt and reminded yourself that it was too crazy....now every kid want to be a Stunt Idiot.

The interview with the kid's friend was very telling...He stated that they both thought helmeys weren't cool. He also kinda shrugged his shoulders and said that the chance this kid took "finally bit him".

I wonder if the kid knows he can hit the RESET button and start all over?
