I miss:

- the amount of freedom we had before 9/11
- those old wooden X-shaped turnstiles in the NY subway
- when the US rail system was made up of many rr companies, thus giving us colorful trains
- not having to listen to those stupid recordings they have in automatic phone message systems
- when most of our products were made here in this country
- Saturday morning Looney Tunes

I miss when I was a kid, I do a lot of good things, didn't study and go to school ( :lol: i'm just joking), so... those years was great to me. Some people wouldn't say i'm nostalgic but yes, I am. Not too much.

^^^^

One example comes to mind.....

I'm into railroads BIG time.  I like watching trains. I'm also into photography.  Early last year, I was at this major freight yard just south of Albany (NY) before the sun came up.  Railfans always go there to watch and photograph trains.

Just for my personal collection, I only wanted to take nighttime pictures of the locomotive area.  This one young cop comes along and gives me a bad time.  He tells me CSX is a government-owned rr, which is wrong.  It's privately-owned.  Took it as a scare tactic. He escorted me out of the borough.
Boy, oh boy, if only I had been born 20 yrs earlier than I was.

That's a result of media and government fear-mongering. They're trying to keep us afraid so they can keep us under control.


Unfortunately This is The Hard Truth... and.... where are (if there are) the Wayouts???

Well this has nothing to do with anything you guys would know. Though what I miss is going to my grandmas in the morning. There I would eat candy, lucky charms or another good cereal and play SNES. After doing this for awhile I would go outside with my grandma and walk the neighborhood. Then come back in and watch Rockos Modern Life, Doug, Are you afraid of the dark, and rugrats.

One thing I really miss....  visiting my grandparents at their German style stucco house in shady (protected-by-trees-type shady, now) Scotia, NY  Loved it there.
Scotia is right across the Mohawk R. from where Mercy was born (Schenectady)
