Oh, life is a glorious cycle of song,A medley of extemporanea; And love is a thing that can never go wrong; And I am Marie of Romania.

Damn, I'm old!
I recall of those things.
me too! ERRGH!
I remember these things...how about washers that you had to feed the clothing between the ringers to remove the excess water.Imagine a time time when folks did not have indoor plumbing and now there are multiple luxurious baths in homes. Read yesterday that the avarage age of the boomers is now 52.
I got my arm stuck in one of those wringers! luckily my older brother reversed the way it went and got me out!
We were chatting about outdoor plumbing the morning! the kids found it dascinating!-not me!
