I remember spoolies, my older sons still call the youngest Spoolie after he found one on the way to school and wanted to know what it was. That sure brings back memories.

I admit it, I'm older than dirt. I remember all 25. One good thing about the list, I CAN still remember. And, they are really great memories!

I think, I remember my mother opening a savings account (mid 1960s)and receiving a book of green stamps. However, they were from a competing company, stamps were colored yellow. Other savings associations would simply give a small gift for opening a $10,000 minimum account.

I may be getting old, however, I am younger than all Metamorphic rocks. Unfortunately, I am older than many Igneous rocks.
