For some reason your post jogged my memory of when the movie "Fritz the Cat" came out!!
Does anyone remember that?

Wonderful World of Walt Disney,

I remember the 45s you could cut out of the back of cereal boxes, with Jackson 5 songs...... and getting 3D baseball cards inside Honeycombs cereal.

Status: offline 		This thread is awesome....I had a "remember when" discussion with my Dom the other day (He's a bit older than me, so some of the things He mentioned I didn't know if I actually experienced them or saw it on Leave it to Beaver or Andy Griffith).

The things I remember:
8 track tapes
Woodywood Pecker
Felix the Cat
Richie Rich and Little Lotta comics
Mr. Rodgers
Bozo the Clown
Milk was delivered in glass bottles
Produce trucks
Everyone in the neighborhood looking out for each other's children
Penny candy (for 1 penny)
When Ricky and Lucy had separate beds but still had Ricky Jr. (???)
Playing until I was tired (not being too tired to play)

Oh my, I could go on, but I'm starting to feel nostalgic.

Top Cat!
The most effectual Top Cat!
Who's intellectual close friends get to call him T.C.
Providing it's with dignity.

Top Cat!
The indisputable leader of the gang.
He's the boss, he's a pip, he's the championship.
He's the most tip top,
Top Cat.

Yes he's a chief, he's a king,
But above everything,
He's the most tip top,
Top Cat.

Top Cat!
Song writing at it's best.

Going for Sunday drives because gas was cheap, the roads weren't crowded and there were huge stretches of land without houses, utility poles or people.
No seat belts in the cars.
The first enclosed mall built in Austin TX.  It was a marvel to us.....all the stores under 1 roof! Lol.
Going to the matinee on Saturday on the military post and buying a ticket, a small drink, a bag (brown paper at that lol) of popcorn and a giant Tootsie Roll for 30 cents.  Total entertainment for 3 hours.
When girls had to wear dresses to school except on cold days.  And the delight when the dress code was abolished my junior year of high school.
