The Walkman was introduced on July 1, 1979. Rotary phones began their decline in the 1960's while black and white TV's with aluminum foil on it's rabbit ears were a thing of the past in the late 1950's.

Beyond that, your story makes perfect sense.

We had a 19'" black & white TV when we were first married in 1971-----and I remember using aluminum foil on the rabbit ears. Once again you are wrong.

The rest of the civilized world had long moved on to color TV's by then.

A thread for retirees in which you post more (56 to date) than any other non-retiree?
or, for that matter, more than any retiree other than ong, rod and more!
What's up with that?

 

[Catatonic]

What does that supposed to mean?

I ask again ... do you get anything the first time around?

Where do you get your info?
I wasn't even in kindergarten in 1960 and many of us had rabbit ears plus Ansel Adams viewing for a few yrs into the 60s.

Your family must've been rich?

We used a rotary phone into the early 70s.

the only color TVs were with the folks who could afford them.......tire builders (although union workers) had to watch the pennies. We even had a plastic sheet to put over your screen to give the appearance of color.
