When you walked into the darkroom and booted up the computer, it called up the last number generated. You gave the job a name too, and you got a whopping TEN characters to use. There was a darkroom set up to run 8x10 negatives for the large commercial customer stuff. I didn't print that. My...

The first computers I ever worked on were Radio Shack TRS80s ("trash 80"). They had (2) 5.25" floppy drives. They ran the printing program in the dark room. You set up the negative, entered the RGB numbers the analyzer gave you, and fiddled with the magenta and yellow dichroic filters till it...

Ain't momma happy, ain't nobody happy.

We sold fresh sweet corn from our garden for a dollar a dozen ears.

Before it was this, it was Bank American card. I was a little girl when it changed, and I thought it sounded so funny.

Credit card trivia question: What was Visa called before it was called Visa? What was the name before that?

I'm so old, I remember doing a day of physical labor, and not feeling stiff and sore the next day...:hmm

My great Aunt Lou called me "kid." She told me she hoped that was all right; she had so many grand kids/nieces/nephews that sometimes she couldn't remember their names. She had Oreo cookies, which my mother never bought, so yeah, it was ok with me if she called me kid. :gig

I not only march to the beat of my own drum, I clap and sing along!

That makes me cool since I was ... 16? I knew I wasn't cool, didn't fit in, and that was about the age I said the heck with it. It ain't never gonna work, so I'll concentrate on other things.

Where I live, it'll take 15-20 minutes for an ambulance to get to my house. If it's serious, yeah, I could be dead before they get there. But I'm not living my life based on a possible emergency that might or might not ever happen someday. I live out here for the here and now.

I never knew this about Barbara Walters... She never learned to drive.

My sister was the incompetent housekeeper. She did it on purpose? I think her strategy was to do it really badly so that mom got exasperated and didn't have her do it so that she herself would have to redo it.

Hubby gets that on occasion now. Remember, there are 4 stages to Santa Claus: You believe in Santa Claus. You don't believe in Santa Claus. You are Santa Claus. You look like Santa Claus.
