NCR Remember When?

Remember When…….

Shoes were worn by everyone? No flops, No Crocs, No plastic!!!

You could buy men’s pants in odd waist sizes?

People wore clothes that fit?

You bought the same style and size of pants and they fit the same?

We had brand names you could trust?

Electronics were made in the USA?

You could retire from the same job after 45 yrs?

Most new books were hard bound?

The phrase “Your Mother wears combat boots” was a joke?

People dressed up for Easter?

You wouldn’t be caught dead in pajama pants in public?

Being on welfare was looked down on?

Families got by on one car?

Movies had to rely on real acting, a plot and directing instead of special effects?

The only medication seen on TV was Alka-Seltzer?

If you flunked classes you were held back a year?

Schools and colleges actually educated us?

If something broke we repaired it instead of buying a new one?

Finding a replacement part was easy because there weren’t dozens of options available?
