At 68 years of age, while I appreciate all the technological and other wonders that I have and am experiencing, I do wax nostalgic at times of things that I miss like those listed below:
Major league pitchers who throw complete games
Basketball players who don’t take games off
Two way football players who play offense and defense
News that only comes on between 6:30 p.m. to 7:00 p.m. No breaking news every commercial break
Civil political discussion shows like Firing Line with William F. Buckley
Women without tattoos or nose rings
Swanson TV dinners
Quality local newspapers and local community reporting
Competitive heavyweight boxing
Cuff links
Pocket watches
The convenience of transistor radios
Gino Giants
Bosco
Wall St Week with Louis Rukeyser
Phillies Hot Pants Patrol
GE College Bowl
Comic books
Vaughn Meader
Big 5 Basketball doubleheaders at The Palestra
Doctors who made house calls
Calls to businesses answered by a person
People shaking hands
Esot-eric
