I'm so old I remember way back when cops were big burly guys you feared. Now days its hard not to laugh when you see some squeaky voiced kid who's barely tall enough to see over the hood of his squad car trying to detain someone.

I recall black & white tv , with only 3-5 networks . And that they went off the air at midnight .

And when they came on in the morning, they played the Star Spangled Banner and there was a flag waving in the wind.

The five networks were ABC, CBS ,NBC , and in some markets Dumont . PBS came later .

No Dumont for me. Just ABC, NBC, and CBS. Plus PBS on some weak UHF station.

Hving to get up to change the channel on the black and white tv.
Watching a movie on the Beta VCR, and having to pick up the rotary phone to order a pizza.
No Caller ID, had to answer the phone to know who was on the other end.
UPS Drivers upgrading from stone tablets and chisels to clipboards and pens.

When I moved to Minnesota in 1958 we were on an 8 party telephone line. Not much privacy there. My Grandma lived in 3 centuries---1899 to 2001. I use to love listening to her stories of how things had changed in her lifetime.

I remember both !!!! Ran out of gas in line in my faded '65 Chevy Biscayne that I bought for $100.00 and did even think of getting painted. The back seat was a repository for empty beer bottles. Things change !

Rofl. My first car was a 66 Biscayne. The driver door didn't work so I had to climb in passenger side and slide over. The automatic transmission was jury rigged and it would start in any gear. It had house paint blue (even worse than Scheib). I later sold it for 50 bucks.
