Smutty Bear Bottom School - now, really, Kathy, that is too funny. I remember most of the things on Chatty's list but in Canada it was a bit different. I was 5 years old when TVs became available and we got one (3 black-and-white channels). My parents had a hard time getting me interested in food until we got the TV. Then I wanted whatever I saw being eaten on the screen. Tweety Bird, Little Lulu and Archie's Betty were my favs. Penny bubble gum with comic wrappers, milk, ice, bread, and meat delivered by different people. The milk man had a horse-drawn cart! We kids ran after the ice truck for chunks during summers. We went to the butcher to pick out our live chicken and the rabbi would cut it's throat, bless it and hang it up to bleed out. Then we plucked it and took it home. Most of the family lived in one city and my grandparents (Mom's parents) moved in with us when they got old. Those were the days! Thanks for the reminisce. Good memories.
