[Uncle Birchy]

I was remembering back when I was a kid..

For my folks 20th Anniversary my Grandma & Grandpa bought em this 25 inch Wood Cabinet "Remote Control" sat in the floor..

My folks took all the Ca$h in their party Cards went to Kmart bought a VCR lay on top of that brand new Tv Set..

We were "Top" of the Line in Home Theater back in the 1980s

I really miss those "Days"

 

[Uncle Birchy]

Nowadays we get everything at an "Instant" so Alotta us grown 2 the freaking point of "Whoopty Doo"..

Back in the DAY ya couldn't wait for a "Movie" come out on "Video-Tape" and what a "Blast" that was..

 

[Uncle Birchy]

I remember my dad bringing home a free or cheap one he got off somebody. Then it blew the tube and we screamed and hollared until we went to a small electronics shop and got a new one to replace it.

So began my addiction to technology.

I have a 65 inch in the living room after using a 40 for years. The 65 is already feeling small.

Remember that Thelma Lou episode where she came back to the reunion except it was in color?

Blew my mind that she was a ginger. I had no idea.

I used to watch the Arsenial Hall show and Newhart on a 5 inch screen after my after-school job. It was black and white.
Ya, I know, Arsenial Hall is a complete fucking dick!
I know that now and he probably thinks my B/W T.V. was racist

Youll think about all them possible coochie shots you was probably missin once you start watchin a big screen

 

[Rigjockey]

I remember "In Living Color" way back in the day..

That was a great show! I think MAD t.v. came along later but still a great show.
Like Saturday Night Live but better.

I miss those comedy skit shows.

not to mention in Hi-def

 

[GAnthony]

Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In

great tv show, when things could be said, not to worry about offending anyone.

Don Rickles, Redd Foxx, Richard Pryor, Archie Bunker, and others said it like it was.
