Golden Memories
You know you're old if you can remember when:
But most of all, you know you're old if you can remember when:
- prime minister was a respectable job.
- if you were carrying a knapsack, you were either in the army or in the woods.
- there were more pubs than coffee shops.
- people didn't have dissenting opinions, they were Commie traitors.
- the Canadian dollar was worth more than the American.
- there was a pile of horseshit at every stop sign.
- people weren't politically correct, they were Commie traitors.
- you used to use the Bomb as an argument for having sex.
- your family got its first television set.
- people didn't want equal rights, they were Commie agitators.
- if a newspaper quoted someone who used bloody as an adverb, they wrote it
b----y.
- the president of the United States made more money than the average major league ballplayer.
- women didn't want equal rights, they were embittered spinsters.
- John Kennedy gave a television address about Cuba and you thought you and everybody else were going to die within 48 hours – if you were lucky.
