Pantyhose - thankfully women today have enough sense not to bother with that daily nylon constriction.
And pre-pantyhose...they had NYLONS! and the girdles or garter-belts to hold them up.

I wonder if the delivered milk is merely pasteurized or ultra-pasteurized?
Yep!
My dad owned a shoe store in a small town and sold a lot of those [-]cheap[/-] inexpensive split cowhide lace up ankle boots to "old guys". But in my neck of the woods they sat around the domino parlor, not the pool hall, and were more likely to be dipping snuff or chewing tobacco than smoking.

This triggered a memory. The store in town that sold Buster Brown shoes had one of these. Anyone recognize it?

my biggest "worry" as a kid i. the summer was getting enough guys to get a ball game going at a vacant lot.
after dinner we could play outside until the street lights came on.
Same here. When I didn't come in right away after the lights came on my dad would let loose a distinctive--and loud--whistle using his mouth and fingers. I knew to come running when I heard that. Other kid's dad's had their own distinctive whistle or yell. (I wonder if they got together and assigned signature sounds?)

Also, playing sandlot ball with a cracked wooden bat that had been repaired with a nail because Little League® season was over and my parents were not going to buy me a new bat until next season since I'd outgrow it by the time next season rolled around.
My neighbor friend and I used to spend hours throwing a D cell battery on his garage roof and catching it when it rolled back. It was kind of like "Plinko", the battery would dart back and forth and you never knew where it would land.

Written thank you notes - a relic of my youth. I still write them, but no one else I know does.
