I do remember!
And how about that super hot/smart Joan Embry* from the San Diego Zoo that frequented 'The Tonight Show with Johnny Carson'?

*As a preteen I had such a crush on her!

Brown paper sacks. I would cut them up and use them for all kinds of stuff.

Thousands of years ago the teaches had us bring them to school and we made book covers out of them. Chuckles, maybe I should have posted this in the how do you know you are getting older thread.

Remember that big elastic thingy with metal hooks to latch it that went around the books to hold em together??

Sometimes they would break and that was always a disaster lol

Remember when... it was possible to actually greet friends and loved ones as they deplaned and walked down the airplane stairs -- on the tarmac!

Does anyone (multi millionares with private jets) get to do that anymore?
