I would add to the original post,

I remember when we spent entire road trips playing in the back of the station wagon.

I remember when you could go fishing or hunting on your own land without a license!

I remember when policemen used to walk through neighborhoods and were friends with everyone, including the kids.... now they spend their entire day sitting in their cars hiding behind signs trying to catch speeders...

I remember when you actually LEARNED stuff in school, besides that killing animals is bad, homosexuals are good, and by the way... here's a condom!

I remember actually getting GRADES on my report card!

I remember when every truck you saw had a gun rack in the back window.

I remember when girls acted like girls.

AND I fretted about getting a "D" or (horrors) an "F" cuz that meant I would either have to go to summer school or be held back a year!

Ick, I never did. Girl stuff, nasty. Slot cars and other "boy stuff", really cool.

"I remember when girls acted like girls."

Hah--you think YOU'RE old. I remember girls actually dressing like ladies instead of streetwalkers.
