Why did the man salute his refrigerator?

Because it was General Electric!

My grandma always called the refrigerator the "Frigidaire." It was the name of one brand of them.

Yeah, I heard "icebox." too. I'm too young to remember them, though.

I still like to say "cranking up the car," although I know people know longer need to literally do that.

In 1961, the teacher brought a small b&w TV into school (unheard of) so that we could watch Alan Shepard go into space... what a time it was, on the edge of...

Carbon paper
HS measuring the inches above the knee a skirt was (I remember being sent home for a skirt too short----oddly, they weren't pleased when I returned in a floor length granny dress...)

Yeah, independence and freedom from is not all it's cracked up to be,....I miss full service stations. But I do like the 24/7 hours too. Remember when they closed at 10pm and somethings were closed on Sunday's too. You had to fill the tank ahead of time or run out of gas.

Thinking about it I was wrong. Tony the tiger was ESSO I am pretty sure which became part of or became actually EXXON.
