Needed re-posting.  Most accurate and succinct post in this thread.
Beach Boys on your AM radio.

Top down on your '56 Ford.

Your buds riding around in the day time, and your steady girl in the evening.

Bleeding madras shirts, white Levis, and penny loafers with no socks=the uniform of the day.

Saturday was for detailing your car in the park with the other guys.

Standing up for your little brother when someone picked on him.

Yes sir, no sir, yes ma'am, no ma'am was the way you addressed adults, and no smart mouth either.

Sunday dinner with the family, at the dinner table.

Respect for women, go to the door when you pick her up. Talk to her parents, and be a gentleman, and above all, have her home on time.

Gas was 20 cents a gallon for LEADED regular, but it was still expensive to me cause I only made 35 bucks a week at the drug store. I spent most of that on beer and girls.

When ever you opened a beer you needed a "church key".

Most of all....every thing was an adventure and life was good.

When my son was little (he's now 31) he asked me if the world had color when I was a child. He assumed that because TV was black and white everything in the world was black and white.
