Riding bikes. All day when we weren’t in school.

Just the independence. From everything.

Music that had rhythm, melody and lyrics.

Smoking cigarettes wherever the frick I wanted.

Local corner stores but also shopping downtown.

$20 lids of weed.

Soccer I was actually an original member of the ole miss rebel keep the flag or whatever it was called. Frank Hurdle started it and I was one of original members. I can still hear him saying “ Stan I have seen the plans, it not just the flag, they are going to get rid of Dixie next, then Col Reb, they are doing to get rid of it all”

I thought he was nuts, but he was obviously completely correct



I think it was called Foward Rebels.

There are some professors who want to get rid of the name, "Ole Miss." Obviously, that's going to be a major battle that will take decades to wage.

I have many family and friends who said, "If they get rid of Col Reb, I'm through with them forever." Those people are still season ticket holders.

If a young man is allowed to fly a million dollar jet and have the right to destroy things and even kill people, at the age of 18 , then he should be able to go to a bar and have a beer.

Uh huh, so allow service members that luxury then. The general populace doesn’t need every single 18 year old in the country drinking and driving

Where do you even start with this question.

I miss not being tied to a phone or computer. I miss privacy. I miss the fact that if someone couldn’t reach you by phone in a few days it was no big deal.

I miss parking at the airport literally 20 minutes before my flight and walking straight to the gate and walking into the plane with zero hassles. I miss having an entire row to myself, because the plane was only half full. I miss much more comfortable seats with far more leg room in coach.

I miss people being very respectful and courteous to one another.

I miss great conversations with strangers about literally anything with zero worries about offending them. People weren’t divided politically back then.

I miss people having thick skin and not being so ridiculously sensitive about everything.

It was fun hanging out with buddies and arguing about everything too.

Did Peter Frampton say I want to think u or I want to duck u in that song.

Did Rod Stewart really pass out on stage and get 40 oz of cum pumped out of his stomach?

Was KISS for kids in service of Satan or Knights in service of Satan

Did the bed table really lift up and we were all playing stiff as a board light as a feather?

Was somebody messing with the dial on the Ouija board or did that ghost thing really come through and say that?

Was that girl really a slut or not.

Who was Mr Wrestling?

You couldn’t google anything so the arguments went on forever

They’re coming for it no doubt. The communist professors have already tried to make it happen

Mall arcades

The excitement of buying vinyl records

Being unreachable when out of the house.
