We didn't have cable. We had an antenna on a tall pole. I'd have to go stand outside in the flower bed and turn it and listen to my dad yell at me from his recliner thru the window. Left, left, left, your other left. Stop! No, ****it, go back! Back! Stop! No, you missed it again. Go back the other way. The other way ****it! Stop!

And I got to go stand by the tv and turn the dial too. Click, click, click, click.

I remember when we got a tv with a remote control and a power antenna turner on the antenna pole. Shoot, happy days!

I was the antenna turner too, except I had to get on the roof to turn ours. Usually just had to do it on Sundays when a Cowboys home game was blacked out on the DFW affiliate and I had to turn it north to pick it up from the OKC affiliate.

Getting up at 5 am to light the heaters so the house would be warm when everybody else got up.

Getting the Bass Pro catalog, filling out all of the item numbers in the order form, gartting mom to help calculate the total to write a check...and waiting 37 years for the order to come in.

Getting a flat tire on my bike 1/2 way to the fishing hole the next day, and having to push it the rest of the way, and 3 miles home only to be late for dinner and get in trouble.

Crossing over to Acuna to have cabrito at Jonnies without fear of having your head cut off.

When your favorite 8 track got hung up in the player and the tape spooled out all over the place when you pulled it out.

EDIt: I see Smart had the same idea but with cassettes

And it would switch tracks in the middle of a great song.

Cheap toilet paper.

I found out that if I shimmed the 8 track to one side with a nickel it would not skip.

I plum forgot about the JC Whitney catalogs. They made a killing off me .

Deer stand heater was a coffee can with a roll of toilet paper soaked in rubbing alcohol

LOL that was my truck heater as well. Had to be real careful on the corners.
