Happy Friday Miss C!
Do you remember back when there were only three channels on the TV? It was a good thing because it was available more to play video games.
Happy Friday Miss C! I'm doing a marathon this weekend. On Netflix.
Happy Friday, gwdMaine and Anonymous!
When I was a kid, we only had two channels we could pick up with an antenna. By the time I was 14, there was one Pong machine at the college student center.
TV !
Seems like everything was invented by the Scottish, steam trains, tar McAdam, thistles, kilts, and TVs.
Speaking of TVs, David Lee Roth sure looks like one.
Population inequalities.
My dad was head hunted to help New Zealand have colour TV, sole reason we moved there back then (ok, coupled with mum hated the heat of Queensland) ... so I was an 11, or 12 year old kid, and we had one TV channel, ony in black and white until dad and his co-workers made it all happen. And because he worked for the (back then, government owned) broadcaster, we got one of the very first colour TVs.
I remember what magic is was.
