    And lots of things that glowed in the dark. Before Day-Glo stuff made an appearance.

    ... remember the original Coke. Not New Coke, not Coke Classic. "Old" Coke.

    And no, Coke Classic doesn't taste the same.

    I can remember the first day we got cable in the house I lived in after finishing college.

    This would have been, oh, 1979.

    TBS would show the Braves game, then maybe an episode of Andy Griffith and them show the Braves game again.

    After that, a wacky deep-of-the-night newscast with Bill Tush.

    Remember the Spiegel catalog? That one seemed to have more bang for the buck.

    Still can recall Jay Stewart announcing the catalog on Let's Make a Deal: Speigel, Chicago, 60609

    or when you could smoke pot at a concert and nobody would freak out because 90 percent of those in attendance actually were smoking pot as well.

    Ha, any time I have to enter a zip code on some website (usually a newspaper one) I always use 60609. It's the only US one I remember and it's because of the Spiegel catalogue.

    I wonder if you can still buy Z-Brick.
