The Buckets by Greg Cravens for August 18, 2013

When I was a kid, everybody had color TV but us.

I recall being the remote control and the one that had to smack the side of TV to keep the Sears Silvertone tuned in…

I remember the first color TVs. Too much green or too much pink. I didn’t like it until they perfected it some.

Grandpa’s house didn’t have a radio?

Even tho we had b&w tv, I remember listening to scary story’s on radio with my Grandfather

When I was a kid: black and white TV on a round screen. Te screen was only about 8 or 10 inches and we had to get up and walk across the room to change channels. We had three channels, but only one TV.

I see.

I love how Eddie is in a trance in the 5th panel.

LOL xxx

I remember life before the Internet. I remember life before High Def TV.I remember life before 900 channels. I remember life of 33.3 cents a litre of gas.I remember $0.99 loaf of bread, and $0.50 chocolate bar.

@Allan i remember a quart of milk being 17¢.BW 2nd hand TV.3 Channels. CBC, Channel 8,and KVOS out of Bellingham. On clear days when the wind was right, we got CHECK TV.I was the channel changer.Thanks to CBC – I learned that the world may end at 10:00 pm, but in Newfoundland it ends at 10:30.:-)

On my uncles farm there was electricity to the barn. A couple of low wattage lights. No power to the house. Had a player piano and wind-up Victrola
