That reminds me of a phillipino fellow I knew long ago. He was describing his childhood morning routine: "I would wake up, get dressed, brush my teeth, put the toothbrush in the roof, put my shoes on, run out....." Whoa, whoa, waitaminit! Toothbrush in the roof?!?!?!??

Turns out, he grew up in a thatch hut, standard practice was to shove your toothbrush handle into the grass roof...

remember TV snow? now it's squares, and freeze ups. nut no snow

Not only snow, but watched it on a 9" round RCA, with the 11 knobs across the bottom, and the 5-minute vacuum-tube warm-up. (Remember the smell of vacuum tube dust?)

 

[I am Carbon]

yes yes I do.
ah those were the days.
I now remember taking the tubes to the store and
plugging them in the tester, figuring out which one was bad.

 

[TwoManyXS1Bs]

Oh gawd! I'm back in elementary! The haircuts, bowties, slacks, white shirts. I still have boxes of tubes in the barn...

Did you notice the episode was written by Wm Fawley? I believe he played Fred Mertz, the Ricardo's (Ricky and Lucy) next door neighbor (Fred and Ethyl) on the I Love Lucy show.

I remember getting up at 6:00 am on Saturday morning and waiting for the test pattern to come on at 7 at my grandmother's house. We didn't have a TV. It was 1955.

My grandson doesn't know who John Wayne is.

Oh yeah, the times they are a changin'
