    Hand crank ice cream freezers were the focus of attention on a hot summer evening. We've still got the one I had when I was a kid.

    Everyone used cash to pay for most things as there wasn't any bank fees or charges on transactions using it....... Oh that's right, there still isn't. ;)

    I remember when we were smart enough to know when our beer was cold and we didn't need a can to tell us.

    I also remember when Coors banquet beer was a much sought after brew but a difficult find on the east coast.

    Woah..who new...Dr Ruth was a sniper.

    When I was in my routine training for the Israeli army as a teenager, they discovered completely by chance that I was a lethal sniper. I could hit the target smack in the center further away than anyone could believe. Not just that, even though I was tiny and not even much of an athlete, I was incredibly accurate throwing hand grenades too. Even today I can load a Sten automatic rifle in a single minute, blindfolded.
