Remember when...?

[HairOfTheDog]

We're all gettin' older; every minute of every day. May as well embrace it and practice for the real golden years. While I do not remember the days when a candy bar was a penny and gas was 10 cents a gallon, I do sometimes find myself thinking, " I remember when..." with fondness.

I remember when:
You could leave the house and automatically enter into a peaceful no-hassle zone. Totally out of commission; off the hook. Just doin' your own thing, all by yourself: driving, shopping, walking around - no way anyone could reach you and you couldn't get spanked for not being accesible 24/7. Damn cell phones.

Remember when???...
