    I was in a meeting yesterday with people around my same age. Someone mentioned "phone book" as a description and I felt the need to point out that some people may not understand that reference.

    All of my friends and I had pocket knives in early 90's high school. When did society get so fucking stupid that a having pocket knife means you are a "threat"?

    Wish that were true at my school. Girl started a fist fight & after I endured a couple of sucker punches I knocked her out, but because I fought at all, my grandfather's pearl handled knife was 'confiscated' after 2 years of me carrying it to school everyday. It was spun into big deal too until the shop & english teachers both spoke up to confirm I always had it & wasn't carrying it to harm someone. To be clear, it never left my pocket. Still, I wasn't allowed to wear it after that.

    They still make them. You can still get him one...and replace your own.

    I plan on it. It just won't have the history of countless sticks whittled, spears made, fish gutted, misc things tinkered and the lots of blood that comes with learning to use a knife properly that mine had. He's 1 now...should be ready for one soon, right?

    Calling 555-1212 for time and temperature.

    I know there are still similar services out there, but I doubt any one uses them much.

    S&H Green stamps.

    My mother saved enough to get me an Atari 2600 as a kid. It happened about 5 years after everyone one of my friends got one sadly.

    The format wars! Thankfully we didn't choose Beta, of course we probably picked 5 years after everyone else again!
