| When I got my license in Boston
gas was at an all time high .47 a gallon
I remember I was young I would go to the
store for my neighbor 4 packs of cigarettes
under 1.00 I got the change and bought a
candy bar.

I would cut grass for $2 or $3 depending on the size. Now they want $30 or $40.
I charge 50.00 minimum too cut yards right now, and the higher the fuel prices go up, the higher my prices for cutting lawns goes up

| I bought a lawn mower last year. My kid had the most dumbfounded look I've ever seen.
 was priceless. It was brand new but one of those old fashioned push mowers, no engine. I don't go anywhere now, work, grocery and drop my kid off at school. Having to work overtime to earn gas money, now that truly does suck big time!

| You could ride your bike to school and they had bike racks
The principle busted your butt if you acted up
The teachers would have you hold out your hand and hit it hard with a ruler if you acted up
You werent afraid to leave your door unlocked
You knew all your neighbors and you watched out for each other
The had Creature Features on Saturday nights, I was thrilled to stay up late of Saturdays with a Dr.Pepper or Coke and some popcorn and watch the scary movies
Most people were married, not divorced.
No one I knew of complained about prayers held at games, functions etc at school
