Did she definitely use cutlets? (Note to self to pick a pair up.)

I love rotary phones! I still use one! But it's not designed for a 21st-century attention span. I'll dial 2-tick-tick, 7-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick-tick, 3-tick-tick-tick - oh sh1t, where was I? (Premature alzheimers?)

I loved the sound of rotary phones. My grandmother (who looked a lot like Shirley Booth) used to have a black rotary phone that I would sit and dial just to hear the sound.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Yeah, Tiff. You can tell the huge difference between paparazzi pics and professional ones.

I have a black rotary phone! It really is a fun noise, just not good when you've got a phone number to dial with a repetition of digits. Then it gets too confusing for this teeny mind.

She does have a great body. Lucky for her, she gets paid a lot of money to keep it that way. Even so, it's a lot of work, I'm sure.

Ways to annoy people: Arrive at a meeting late, say you're sorry, but you didn't have time for lunch, and you're going to be nibbling during the meeting. Then eat raw potatoes. Ask people what gender they are,or Disagree strongly with everything anybody says:)

Speaking of telephones..........I remember when you dialed with a name before the number. My first phone number I can remember was in 1959. It was Atlantic6-8403. Then it was shortened to AT6-8403 . Then 286-8403. Those names were nice.

When you couldn't say Bitch on TV! Or when it was safe for the kids to play outside until the sun came down or when the kids would actually go outside cause there was nothing better inside!

It started with a sipmle idea, collecting one paper clip for every life lost, the feelings that connect us...are greater than those that divide us!

Movie Palces. Spending the afternoon or evening at the theater watching a movie, cartoon,newreel, trailer ( not 5000 plus commercials) & movie

To think in Times Square there were 6 or 7 palaces & now there are none. What a pity

So many uniquely georgeous buildings now gone

1. Michigan - Detroit
2. Paramount - NYC
3. Roxy - NYC
4. Capitol - NYC
5. Grenada - Chicago
6. Paramount - Toledo
7. Fox - San Francisco
8. Southtown - Chicago
9. Paradise - Chicago
10.Mastbaum - Philadelphia

"Oh sorry. I thought they were discontinued during the red dye scare of the late 70's when they took away all the maraschino cherries off of everyone's ice cream sundaes. "

What? I don't recall any 'red dye scare'... do explain

anyways to add to the list of "remember when's"

When little kids played with simple things like blocks and stuffed animals instead of complicated musical robotic whatever like now

When the OBC of Rent was still on Broadway... (Oh wait, nevermind

)

Hee. Actually, when I was in Israel the TV not only had no remote, the buttons to change the channels were numbered 1-10 because the manufacturers couldn't conceive of a TV having more than 10 channels. Which made sense, since we had about 3-4 channels at any given time. :)

My elementary school's public phone was rotary, and to my mortification I couldn't figure out how to use it for about 5 minutes the first time I tried.

Well, it's funny in retrospect.

NoDay, in the late 1970's there was a scare on red dye #2. They were saying that it caused cancer or birth defects or something like that. So immediately all products that had red dye in them were pulled from the market. This mostly included such great things as maraschino cherries and red M&Ms.

The 1970s were a really bad time to grow up because there were a lot of shortages.

Gas shortage
sugar shortage
coffee shortage
fashion sense shortage
