Older Than Dirt Quiz!
« on: November 10, 2015, 03:21:56 AM »
Someone asked the other day, what was your favorite fast food when you were growing up.
"We didn't have fast food when I was growing up", I informed him.
All the food was slow.
C'mon, seriously. Where did you eat?
It was a place called home, I explained.
Mom cooked every day and when Dad got home from work, we sat down together at the dining room table, and if I didn't like what she put on my plate, I was allowed to sit there until I did like it.

By this time, the kid was laughing so hard I was afraid he was going to suffer serious internal damage, so I didn't tell him the part about how I had to have permission to leave the table.

Older Than Dirt Quiz :::::::::

Count all the ones that you remember, not the ones you were told about. Ratings at the bottom.

10. Hi-fi's
