Remember when...

[yesthattom]

I wonder how old you have to be to be this old:

You don't remember a time when drug companies didn't advertise on pens
There were no DVDs
There was only one phone company

Older than 36. I remember this girl I had a crush on in high school (around 1982), her parents were both doctors and she had all sorts of medical tschotchkes mostly advertising psych medications.

I do remember one phone company.

DVDs date to what, the mid-90s? I think a better test of age would be remembering when there were no CDs.

I remember that too. My nephew, who's 9 and a half doesn't.

I grew up on 8-tracks.

Oh yeah, my grandparents had a portable 8-track player that I'd listen to in their car while visiting. And even better? Their home stereo had an 8-track player for which they'd bought an adapter for...A CASSETTE PLAYER. Mwahahahaha. :)
