Well … I recently caught myself doing … “it”: reminiscing in the past … the “When I was growing up…” syndrome. All that was missing was a few “whipper-snappers” thrown in. It doesn’t matter what it was—whether the three-channel black-and-white TV (weren’t we thrilled at receiving that round UHF antenna and a fourth channel!), Read More
