Who all remembers

Cool stuff. My kids think I'm old when i talk about phones hanging on the wall with long chords and tv's that had dials with 6 channels haha We had fun in the 80's though.... I got a three wheeler before they were banned. I've visited several folks in their late 90's over the years ; Truly eye opening stuff. Respect for Elders here.

The late 60s and 70s were much more fun, going outside and turn the antenna, for 3, channels 2,5, 11. I remember our first remote control, a six foot cord to the TV. Us kids fought over that.:pound:
