Anyone else remember getting told that if you turn the knob to fast on the TV it would fall off?  Of course you wouldn't believe your parents,  until you were standing there changing channels with a pair of pliers.  Then my grandparents got a new TV with a brand new thingy called a remote control. And it had only three buttons!  Can you imagine?

And how about Frisbees?   My dad got so tired of having to get on the roof to get the Frisbee down. 

After reading about Unicorst's mulbeery tree made me  really miss the old apple tree.   It was perfect to sit in during the summer and read.  I could fill up on the apples and hide from the parents when they wanted me to do chores.   I actually cried when that stupid tornado took it out.
