Ah, because time does not change rapidly?

I myself can say back in the day and have it make sense. Nowadays we have ipods and psp's, back in the days we had cassette and cd players. Back in the days people could rap about a story and it'd be considered good, nowadays people rap about drugs and have other rap along.

You guys crack me up! I'm the oldie here and I can't even say back in the day with a straight face as I am still not old enough to be using that analogy.

hehe, actually I was joking about the heated debates we have been having lately and my grilling you. But, yeah, I have a fan club out there and it aint pretty at times.

Fan clubs can be vicious at times, it seems. But you gotta love 'em. ;)

In the words of the late great Dale Earnhardt...

P.S.

This thread is more fun then the other one. I can't repeat myself anymore. I think it's time for a motorcycle ride.

I used to ride, "back in the day". Had a 550 Honda that I sported to a harly frame. That was when they were the big boy on the block, back in the mid to upper 70's.

Those 550's are still around. The inline 4 CB series I assume? I think we all had one of them "back in the day" as a first or intermediate motorcycle.

Well, I haven't had one since so that was my ending bike. ;)

I got it off of a Shriner and ported the carbs out before I mounted it on the Harley frame. The thing would defiantly scoot. ;)

hehe, I like to scoot. I'm riding a bike I had built to go to the track and I was going to get a second street bike. I had the fever.

Well the Motor, Trans, and drivetrain were completed when we discovered we were pregnant. That meant no travel. No racing. No money!

So I put the bike on the street. It was rediculous. So I pulled out the new drivetrain that put the gearing in the basment. It's an 80 inch, but I've yet to be beaten by an 88 inch yet. I haven't lost yet in fact when I've raced. But I quit while I'm ahead. It's rare to have the mile or two ya need to safely run the gears out anymore. Like it was ever safe to begin with! :D

I just redid her. She looks great.

The first 3 galleries are the new blue design. Then there is a gallery of what it looked like when we decided to paint her blue. The last gallery is some pics of the basket case Sportster we built in our dining room. We didn't have a garage or shed yet "back in the day".

I'm interested in checking this out further as I had a Kawasaki 150 I use to rude back and forth to work when I was stationed at Ft. Bragg back in the early 70's. Best bike I ever had and did a little moto-crossing with it. ;)

Thats more like it, and Commadore 64's where you had to wait 2 hours for the tape to load.

Bus fares were < 10p (for kids) and you got 20 sweets in your 10p mix (not 2 sweets like you do now)

.....but that sound....you probably knew exactly which game was loading by just listening.....those where nice days.

I didn't own a C64, just a 2600 but if I was going to a mates to play on their C64 right after school, they would tell their Mum in the mroning which game to put on. She'd start it loading about 2pm ready for us when we got home at 3:45pm

Dictophones weren't 'tapes' they were green flimsy 45rpm size circles with grooves on them like 'real' records;
The only 'rap' we had was someone knocking on the door..... or gawd forbid a rap sheet...lol
We still had to punch all those holes in the cards (usually a few thousand of them) to run a simple program on a computer the size of a mountain....
