     Memories? Remember that long wait, about three minutes usually, for the TV to warm up? Remember when nobody ever asked where the car keys were?.......in the car, in the ignition and doors that were never locked. Did you ever eat Kool Aid powder with sugar already in it? How about those wax coke shaped bottles with colored sugar water inside? Baseball cards in bike spokes.....cool. I double dog dare you.
