when i was a kid you could range blocks from your house with your bike and only had to be close enough to hear your mom calling you when the street lights came on and nobody worried about you being gone for 6 or 8 hours.
.I still run a Marantz Quad decoder in one of my stereos , i must have over 50 good quad albums & another 30 so so like 3 dog night type shit .
And being able to get a drink of water at a gas station for free!
or having the guy put air in your bike tire without blowing it up (like i did the first time i tried)
I remember riding through the center of town, past the general store, past the town common, past the police station, with our pellet rifles strapped to our handlebars to go shoot on the train tracks..late 80's-early 90's..no one freaked out..we had the cops show up a few times and let us pop off a few from their handguns...What the F happened to this country?
click-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-pssshhhhhhhhh..i keep looking for one to hang n the front of my garage..
How about the old fire alarms at every intersection on the telephone pole , pull that switch & watch the fire trucks come .
Fuk i want one too , those were the shit , you could set your air pressure & the pump would stop when it hit pressure , every lb it went ding , dingclick-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-click-DING!-pssshhhhhhhhh..i keep looking for one to hang n the front of my garage..
You get that back when you retire but your too old to have fun & run with it .
My gradfather was a Boston fireman for 30+ years, he's got an OLD - 30's or 40's fire call box in his basement..along with a hydrant..How about the old fire alarms at every intersection on the telephone pole , pull that switch & watch the fire trucks come .
The police callboxes were fun too ,pick up the phone & talk shit to the police operator then split
...his second after the police confiscated the one that was in his backyard..i still don't know how he got either of them. We had dye in the call boxes around our town..you couldn't pull'em....easily..lol. fishing line tied to a bike worked well..
That & the Saturday Night Special , both had all the best groups & their selling the series on dvd now .
cant wait to prove you wrong on that one...
