when Thrifty's ice cream was $0.05 a single cone and $0.12 for a tripple cone and candy bars were $0.10...

[Biglue]

It's not just the change in prices either. Everything has changed since I was a kid. There is NO WHERE for kids to ride their bikes anymore. There is no local hang out. You can't trust your kids to run to the park for a while. I remember as a kid in the summer I'd get up meet with my buds and disappear. Come back in time to go to the swimming pool. Get back and go home for dinner. My parents saw me about 1 hour out of the day. Now I don't know one parent who would allow their kids to run free like that, including myself.

[76ANTHONY]

When most of us did not wear seat belts in the car.
and mom would say, now you two look for cops while i drive, but why mom, cause im in a hurry:D :D :D

Steely Dan and you were not driving yet?
ok your way too young for this thread:D

[Biglue]

When most of us did not wear seat belts in the car.
Or ride in the dad's truck bed, helmets were not required to ride your friggin bike. Could play with a BB gun, could spray paint your bike without worrying about some tree hugger neighbor bitching.....list goes on and on.

And during the winter the local community pools would drain and we'd be allowed to ride our skateboards in there...FREE...without supervision.

[Captain Dan]

Does anybody remember Space Food Sticks?

[Biglue]

There was this place called jackrabbit, it was an old landfill. It was our own little Glamis if you will. Rode our bikes in there for hours. Ask J, he remembers that place by the old South Bay 6 drive in.
Then there was swimming at the local pool. Good memories man. Still have some good friends that I still talk to from back then too.

[Biglue]

OK, when I was 18, the drinking age was too. When they changed it to 19, it was too late because I was already 19 AND it was legal to drink and drive. I remember getting stopped once with an empty 6 pack and one in my hand. I got a warning for speeding in my 1973 Plymouth Grand Fury. Ahhh those were the days.:D

[photo chick]

I grew up near acres and acres of tomato fields, and boy did we have some of the most hellatious tomato wars, came home covered head to toe in tomato pulp.

[life's a river]

I remember when I used to take my little 18' Horizon with a 115 Merc from Parker Dam to Copper Canyon on a Memorial weekend and not get swamped. Oh yeah and it would only cost $15 to get there and back. I seem to remember a few bands playing on top of house boats before they were banned from being in there.
Good times!

I remember when a can of chew was eighty five cents...Vans were only worn by skateboarders.

[DeltaSigBoater]

Even though I was way to young to drink I remember pull tabs on beer cans. That red government tag that used to be on top of all bottles of booze. Party (beer) Balls, whatever happen to those?
Remember Lazer Tag? When I was in kindergarden we had a "school wide" Lazer Tag Day, everyone brought in their lazer tag setup. Like that could happen now without making national news.
I Remember when Kellogg’s, General Mills, & Post used to put actual PRIZES in their boxes of cereal.
I remember when the In N' Out opened there outside of Barstow - my brothers hated stopping there because no toy came in the "kids meal"

I remember being in highschool...96-00 and everyone wanted a Z71 x-cab on 35's because that was just big pimpin... now if you dont have a crew cab duramax on 22's and 28's with 10 screens... you aint keeping up with the jones.
or when you might see 5-6 pushers and long travel rails at glamis, and now gecko road is flooded with them all the way through the loop.
yep... a 21' open bow was the shit!! if you had anything nearing a 26' you were a baller!
no seatbelt law
no whips required on bikes in the dunes

wouldn't get popped for a dui in glamis unless you had rolled your truck and it caught fire... now they just pull you over, unless they already have someone else pulled over.
29cent cheeseburgers at mcdonalds

[Flyinbowtie]

Still got my Party Ball tapper, too. Wish they still had those things.
Got all my 501's from a place in North Long Beach called, The Rag Factory", they sold seconds. It was out by Shady Acres. I worked in a gas station when premium hit 50 cents a gallon at our full-serve premium pump in the summer of 1975. I think I was making $2.25 an hour.
I remember paying $1800.00 for a 5 year old 1970 1/2 Z-28.
My payments were $72.55 per month, my insurance was $33.00 a month.
I remember when Tacos et. al were 15 cents at Taco Bell.
I remember the first time smelled a car that had the Gen 1 cat. converter on it. Nasty rotten egg smell.
I rmember when the cops closed down Whittier Blvd. They blocked all the left turn lanes, and ended cruising there. It was a major bummer.
My son couldn't believe it the first time he watched that old movie, "Dazed and Confused"...He asked if I remembered things ever being like that and I said, "Damn right, boy..I was there!"

It's not just the change in prices either. Everything has changed since I was a kid. There is NO WHERE for kids to ride their bikes anymore. There is no local hang out. You can't trust your kids to run to the park for a while. I remember as a kid in the summer I'd get up meet with my buds and disappear. Come back in time to go to the swimming pool. Get back and go home for dinner. My parents saw me about 1 hour out of the day. Now I don't know one parent who would allow their kids to run free like that, including myself.
Sick isn't it Biglue.
Mom used to throw a 5 bill daily.
bus ride to Newport
surf all day
perrys pizza slices and a coke
Tigermilk bar
bus ride back to La Habra and thumb it over the hill to Rowland heights.
Mom "how was your day Dave?"
Me " just like yesterday, can I do it again tomorrow?"
I wish everybody had parents like mine!
