Top Comments of this video!! :3
Tv antennas: 3 channels/ networks, NBC, CBS, and ABC, and all went off the air at midnight. There were no remotes to change the channels, you were it, and the "RABBIT EARS" on top of the "CONSOLE" tv which was a "BALL BUSTER" to lift, and move. When it came to phonographs, your records could play without skipping if you attached a "NICKEL" to the top part of the needle.

Two things, the tv antenna is back in big way. We see adds on tv that say , you have your antenna now you can get all the rest for a small charge per month. Our cable company doesn't even talk about tv in their adds, it's internet, wireless phones and home phones. Toyota and Chevrolet are bringing inexpensive trucks to the market that don't have all the bells and whistles, just a plain truck.

SInce the video explained what a dial telephone is and how the desired number were physically dialed, it would have made more sense to have explained THAT before mentioning computer dial up connections, which entailed that very concept as a prerequisite for understanding the "dial" part in the name.

Wow! I remember getting milk delivered every week from Schneider's Dairy in the late 60s and early 70s. Regular milk, chocolate milk, orange juice, yogurt, sour cream, cottage cheese, and my father's favorite - buttermilk - super yuk - as well. It all stopped sometime between 1973 and 1974. (Buttermilk was great to cook with but to drink it straight? Oh Lordy Be - no way.)

I've often wondered how many babies were made at drive ins. I tried but failed to produce any progeny, at the drive in. Before i ever saw a calculator i had a slide rule (look it up). I also took a typing class my sophomore year, why you ask, I was the only male in a class of pretty girls I'm not stoopid.

No, in the 60's we pulled up next to a speaker that hung on our roll-up car window. Tuning in on the radio was introduced perhaps but not prevalent.
