What a childhood I had! If If it were possible, I'd go back in a heartbeat?

​

I remember the great friendships, Cool Cars, Diners, Drive-In Theatres, Oldies Music, Record Shops, U get the picture. It was a time we talked face to face not I-pad to I-phone. U could drop by a friends house, grab a plate, fork, and knife, a little wine and join your buddies family for dinner. We as kids were richer than we thought. Who knew a Bobby Orr Rookie card we clothes pegged to our bikes spokes for sound, would be worth $100 Grand today. The thing that excited us more than anything at Christmas time was waiting for the "CANADIAN TIRE CATALOGUE". There were no recalls on toys, we just tested them on our younger brother or sister, ah those were the Good Old Days! Life was simple back then. The best "Fad" to come out of our generation was the "Pet Rock", oh ya! A rock as a pet. The "Pet Rock" came with it's own carry bag. U dressed it up, held fashion shows. It also came with an instruction booklet to teach your own "Pet Rock" to sit, rollover, come and attack on command! When U got tired of the "Pet Rock", U held your own funeral and then buried it in your back yard. The "Pet Rock" was advertised as a low maintenance pet that can do anything a real pet can do. With all the drugs in that era, we believed anything. Friendships were incredible, something U wont find today. Drag Racing, Cruising, or just packing your car full of friends and heading down to the 400 Drive-In Theatre to watch "The Texas Chainsaw Massacre, The Exorcist, The Fog, Dawn Of The Dead, and Tales Of The Crept". All Thanksgiving Weekend" till the next day. Life was good, we never thought our friendship would end. We had dreams of conquering the world. Then one day the worst imaginable thing started to happen. Girls started coming into our lives and messed up all our plans. With all the drugs and screw ups we went through, I think we grew up normal. I can go on and on with how great our generation was but I won't, because I'll be dead.
