    Similar to you. It’s not that I necessarily miss anything, I just dislike what this civilization has become. I really believe cellphones need to be abolished (along with any other small device that can internet). I am okay with having a cell phone, but it needs to just be a phone, no text and no internet. Also no damn video recording devices. Yeah I know old man, cloud yelling, yada yada yada.

    Quality, price, simpicity of life and other essentials, like food, vehicles, etc. Respect for parents, police (law and order) and each other. Simple mobile phones that are not smart that make their users stay glued to them and really stupid !

    Getting a Brown Bag Special from Sonic for $5.00
    For those of you not from the South, or too young, that was two cheeseburgers, two fries, and two drinks.

    Quality in craftsmanship. Quality period. Kids actually enjoying the outdoors. Kids knowing what manual labor is. A time when drugs weren’t so much of an issue like nowadays. Gas under a dollar. Cheaper material prices.

    Remember when you could hire a tradesman/handyman to do some work and they would actually show up and do a decent job? Oh, and bring back the $5 Louann Platter at Luby's cafeteria! For that matter bring back Luby's.

    No one can be wrong that often so it has to be deliberate.
