Default Ready to feel REALLY old?

I feel like Methuselah...and I barely remember the show.

You may not exactly be 'younger than springtime', sonny, but if you were 'old' we could talk about Stu Erwin, My Little Margie, Topper, and the water-filled fishbowl screens that made 'Uncle Miltie' Berle big enough to be seen from in front of the couch (the couch itself was for 'company', not us kids).

And don't forget Howdy Doody, Huntley and Brinkley (who smoked on the air while doing the news), when a 'calculator' was a slide rule (or if you weren't rich enough to buy one of those, a #2 pencil, a piece of paper and a functional mind), and when FM radio was 'new'.

Thanks, guys! Now I merely feel old, rather than ancient!

You guys sure know how to make a guy feel better!
