That's close to the ongoing inside joke in our family whenever the grandkids get a scrape. They try to create drama out of being hurt and my response is usually, "Rub some dirt in it and go play!"

Camera had a carry box of lenses. I had two jobs. Carry lense bag and load film.

I have a roll of film on my desk next to me right now. Found it while going through an old camera bag. i want to get it developed but haven't researched where to send it to yet.

I'm also worried because I have no idea what is on it. . . lol

I remember waiting with a tape ready to record some of my favorite songs off the radio

That sounds like it would really mess up your recording. No wonder you got mad.

Luckily I didn't have that problem on The 7th Day.

Last albums I remember recording were a couple of Ozzy albums. Don't remember which ones, though.

Second thing to go... memory.

Be in my earl 80's, hopefully still be sane enough to see it

Big bonus if I make it to 2057.

I remember getting an album on cassette for a birthday present that was really popular at school. I bought a dozen blank cassettes and used my twin tape deck blaster to make copies that I then sold at school for $1 each. .

I think it might have been Dire Straights Brothers in Arms.

Y3K is not as concerning as Y10K. Remember when gas prices first exceeded $1.00/gallon? What a mess that created at the pump!

Tell me about it! I was working my night job while in college, and every night had to go outside with a new gear set for each pump as the corporate HQ gas-pricing computer kept flipping our prices back and forth between $0.999 and $1.009 every other night for weeks.....
