184. One more reason why they could be hearing more of it than we did

is because there are more of us to hear it from!

They didn't call our generation "Baby Boomers" for nothing...

We're here, we're there...we're everywhere!

(that's from a cartoon but I can't remember which one)

:7

PS... I heard all the same stories you've pointed out, plus some...one of my dad's favorite stories was getting one pair of shoes per year and having to go barefoot all summer. If that one pair of shoes got a hole in the sole, you just got a piece of cardboard and stuck it inside the shoe.

If your feet grew, too bad. You wore them until your next pair of shoes.
