You might be "old school" if...

[Gunner46]

Milk, eggs, and butter were delivered to you door.

Gas was $0.22.9 per gallon

Your Dad swore he was going to quit smoking cuz smokes just hit $0.29 a pack

You watched the 1st man launched into space on a rolled in black & white TV, at school.

Atomic Bomb drills at school

Electric road car rail tracks in the streets

Riding the mule (bareback) while grandpa plowed a field, FUN

Oh, my favorite......Dad carrying 2 different weights of bullets when hunting. One for an open field shot and another for brush busting !

You don't have a friggin smart phone in your hand 24/7.

You don't even own a "dumb" cell phone.

 

[Dave N]

You carry an atlas in the truck and don't use any kind of GPS stuff.

 

[onpoint]

If you've never heard of an internet forum nor "posted" a reply on one.
Makes all of us "newbies".
Everything is relative.

 

[hank4elk]

If you didn't even know how to turn on a PC til' they forced you to go to a class @ work....in 06'.

I still don't own a GPS and get along fine; doubt I'll ever own one, and I've worked in technology all my life. I just prefer maps and charts. Will use one if the plane I'm flying is so equipped.

 

[Dave N]

Same here, tarheel. Use my atlas and state road maps whenever I do any traveling.

 

[psinclair]

When you could lose the crowd by getting a mile off the road in the Bridgers in late November, see 8-10 large , mature mule deer bucks, and never cut another boot print

 

[Gr8bawana]

If you remeber when gas was $.25 cents a gallon in 1967. We used to fill up a mini bike with a quarter and ride around all day WITH NO HELMET and we survived. We also drank water out of a garden hose.

 

[antlerradar]

When sent control was staying up wind.

 

[idahojoe]

Your first truck had three on the tree...

 

[RobG]

You looked forward to the "all black fish" days, and binge reading all 12 months. (Part of Grandpa's calendar from before my time, but I remember my Dad's in the 70s).

And three pounds of bacon per week!

 

[bobbydean]

You watched the World Series at school in the daytime.

 

[johnp]

You know you're old school if your early taxidermy mounts look like the ones you see at the estate sales.

 

[Southwind]

...you paid $89 for your brand new Rem 600.

...you bought shotguns shells at the Walgreens, in the Mall, at 14.

...rode a bike through town with a shotgun across the handle bars, and nobody gave a damn.

I guess I'm old. I used to ride the city bus to the edge of town with my shotgun. Try that today.

 

[twodot]

Your all time favorite hunting boots were the old green Herman Survivors. Every year you look at your cedar arrows with Zwicky Deltas, and see no reason to update your archery equipment. You remember driving thru Montana main streets on Saturday nights and the only dogs you saw were some variation of Heelers in the back of trucks.

 

[bigskyblueman]

When your Mom and Dad had the same telephone number for 50 years.

 

[psinclair]

You watched the World Series at school in the daytime.

Listened on transistor radios.....Being a Detroit Tigers fan, the one I remember most was an epic battle between the Tigers, and the Cardinals that went seven games in 1968.

 

[Gr8bawana]

You don't need to "upgrade" your bow every year when a new model comes out.

When radial tires were a new thing.

Your truck window went up or down by turning a crank handle.

 

[genesis273]

When ALL trucks had one long seat.

When as a kid, you always had a pack of candy cigarettes so you felt cool like all of the adults around you and on tv.
Do they make those anymore?
