While we're in a nostalgic mood, FIZZIES ARE BACK!!!!
This would be that drink I was posting about last week. Just don't do what that stupid little kid in Maryland did back in 1958.

Mamie did great !!! Shamey..I'm so proud of you kiddo.
I really should've known the Timex one. Duh!
Farfel was the name of that dog! (That's been driving me crazy). Anybody old enough to remember Farfel and his pal Danny O'Day? With the assistance of ventriloquist Jimmie Nelson, Farfel sang "Chaaawwwwclate!"

Now they make new movies
In old black and white
With happy endings
Where nobody fights
So if you find yourself
In that nostalgic rage
Honey, jump right up
And show your age
I wish I had a pencil thin mustache
The Boston Blackie kind
A two toned Ricky Ricardo jacket
And an autographed picture
Of Andy Devine
I remember being
Buck-toothed and skinny
Writing fan letters
To Sky's niece, Penny
Oh, I wish I had
A pencil thin mustache
Then I could solve
Some mysteries too
And "My Friend Flicka"!
That brought back lots of good memories!

Um.......I think we chased all the young 'uns away.
That's ok - more Good 'n Plentys for us (though I hate licorice - I'll "open wide for Chunky").
Moony, and you warn me about the phrasing I choose around here.
"I'll open wide for Chunky". So is that what you old folks are calling it today..Chunky?
Good n' Plenty's are my favorite candy! Good n' Fruity's (no comments from the peanut gallery) were, but they stopped making them. Sigh!

You know, Shamey, that DID cross my mind as I typed! And yet....
.....I didn't change a word.
What are young 'uns doing on the adult thread anyway? (When you get REAL old you get to be mean and wear purple.)
Wax Lips, Fizzies, Slo Pokes, Wax Bottles with flavored syrup, Candy Cigarettes, Necco Wafers, Candy Buttons on paper tape, Sugar Daddies, Mary Janes, Chiclets, Zagnut, Chunky, Abba-Zaba, BB Bats, Sen Sen, Chick-O-Sticks, Teaberry Gum, Kits, Sugar Babies,....
Makes me wonder how I ever got to be this old
