I remember when cars were loud

I remember when you had to crank the windows open and shut by hand

I remember when you had to rewind the VHS movies before returning them to the library

I remember before everywhere took credit cards

I remember when places actually took checks

I remember before we had air conditioning

I remember getting only 9 or so channels

I remember VHS tapes and cassette tapes

I remember taping things, like The Magic School Bus

Everything I know about science I learned from The Magic School Bus

I look like Mrs. Frizzle (I should be her for Halloween one year)

I wonder where the word "cassette" comes from

I remember ornament-making parties

I remember the Celtic Christmas CD and Mr. Magoo's Christmas Carol

I remember heaving the solstice tree out of the front room window when it was time to throw it out
