Does "they had it coming to'em" count?

The last murder trial we had here the defendant took the stand to testify. I about fell over when he turned to the jury and told them "the SOB was just begging to be shot, so I did it!".
Not surprisingly, the jury found him guilty.

Now, now.. Let's be careful and air on the side of caution. No need to be their escape goat.

Remember when you could eat an entire box of cereal and not gain a pound? I can still eat a box of cereal, just killed some Cinnamon Toast Crunch!

Remember the Dukes of Hazard, my favorite show of all time? "just a good 'ole boys, never meanin no harm. Beats all they ever saw been in trouble with the law since the day they were born".

Heard that coming on one time as a kid and took off running from the kitchen to our "garage converted to a den" and tripped on a threshold and fell headfirst on the brick steps. Trip to the ER.

Remember when...

Turns were signaled by sticking your arm out the window, arm straight out was a left turn, and arm bent upward hand open was a right turn.

They had signals before I started driving but I remember my grandfather signaling out the window with his arm

Remember when elevators had operators and they had scissor style gates instead of doors?

More like "Remember when watching that didn't get you labelled as a racist?"

When you first got hooked up to the phone company you had to hook up to a eight party line.

While we're on the subject of phones

Remember rotary phones? At one point we had a horrible number to dial

897-0003.... It took forever to dial.. If it had been 0009 nobody would have ever called us.

That gives new meaning to "speed dial"

I was the happiest guy ever when touch tone phones came out.

I actually used the excuse to my parents when asked why I didn't call and tell them I was going to be late was because it would take too long.

I still have a rotary dial phone. Can't tear it up and works if the power is off.

[dan_bgblue]

I have an early touch tone phone that does the same thing. Can't think of even going back to rotary, as I would never be able to call blueboss.

there was no air conditioning

I remember when we got air conditioning in our house, and when we got a car with air conditioning

Remember when

Businesses had the polar bear sign on the front door advertising their business was air conditioned

They always said "Brrrrrrrr come on in it's cool inside"

I remember when our family got the first air conditioner. It was a window unit. It served the dining room and living room, but the kids were never allowed in those rooms. We never ran the unit all that much. My mother believed the air conditioner was the source of her sinus problems.

That's back when you could not accidently murder someone, nor intentionally murder someone and get away with it on a technicality.

That is when cars were made of steel and had chrome that would protect folks more so than today.

Haha, you are being sarcastic I hope.

My Dad had an old Buick, early 50's model, and it had an A/C unit in it. You had to put a big chunk of ice in the side opening port. Do any of you guys here remember anything similiar to that?

[blueboss]
