    Yep, I did that summers in high school and all through college. It was a PITA when you were working three cars at the same time and one was a fill up, but the other two wanted $5.00 and $2.00. You could also look really dumb when you couldn't find the hood release. :D

    I still have 2 working rotary phones in the house (I like a real bell ringer, not a digital recording of a ringer). It is fun to point anyone under 16 to the phone and tell em to make a call! :)

    Ha ha, I used to use Dippity-Do!

    I stopped using it when, in hot weather, it would "melt" off your hair and down your face. :lol:

    One of my Dad's colleagues was nicknamed "Dippity-Do", 'cause he used a lot of it!

    Move to Oregon, all gas stations are either full or partial service. It's funny, I go to other states and sit in the car waiting for someone to come fill it up. On the downside, getting gas takes at least 10 minutes.
