Penny candy and Annette Funicello!
Tan Shoes and Pink Shoe laces!!
Those were the days, my Friend. I remember them well.
Back when a president challenged us to go to the moon in less than a decade, and the response, was: We can do that!
“Penny candy and Annette Funicello!”
5 cent Belly Busters,...24 for a dollar on weekends !!!
That sure sounds Mickey Mouse to me.
Damn; do I remember Annette, had a real thing for her (from afar of course).
Also remember walking along the banks of the Rio Hondo, San Gabriel, and Los Angeles Rivers; hunting quail and pheasant with a 410 shotgun in what is now Downey, Norwalk, and Lynwood.
If a cop stopped you, you knew he was just going to ask if you had any luck; and if so, where did you find the birds hanging out.
You just knew he was coming back as soon as he was off duty and get a few birds for his wife and families supper.
YEAH; I WOULD LIKE TO GO BACK TO THOSE DAYS.
You could watch television with kids or parents and not be embarrassed, not even once.
