Which side of the street was the barber shop on? West? I believe the Cock O The Walk was there even then! Humpty, TG&Y, a hardware store, cleaners and Safeway were all on the east side. And there was a Mobil station just to the north and was it Sheen Drug on the S.E. corner?

Barber was right next door to the Cock and there was a shoe repair shop somewhere in there too. Across the street from the Mobil (actually SE corner of Western and Eubanks) was a Sinclair (SW corner). The drug store was a Rexall, one of my two sources of comic books. The other one was the TG&Y. I know Humpty was on the north end of the strip center, but I can't remember what was at the south end before Bruno's?

What is that? A Sunbeam Alpine? Or some kind of Fiat?

Safeway! I can remember it like it was yesterday.

It must have been on the west side. The east side had Crown Heights
grocery, TG&Y and Bruno's.

Nope, North to South, Humpty Dumpty, TG&Y, Cleaners, Hardware, Safeway.

A coffee house.

Not Starbucks.

100 grand and it's yours! LOL!

I'm completely floored by the work this guy has done. Unbelievable, honestly

Now I need a '40 Ford Coupe! Street rod, of course. The only way to cruise
Coit's and pick up the babes.

Did I say that? I hope Prunette doesn't read this!

I think it is a mid-60's Fiat 850 Spider.

Upon first sight I thought it was an Alfa Romero, then I came to my senses.
I believe it's a Fiat, too. Europe knows sports cars.

Nice shot of the Fotomat, though.

Now, come on. Did that really work?

Kids will never know that when you wear your shoes out you don't buy a new pair, you get them re-soled or re-heeled. Plus they would re-dye the shoes when you had other work done so they looked just like new. I loved the smell of the shoe shop!

Why didn't we have these problems in the 50's? Any ideas?

May I add, "without metal detectors".

Because we were taught and had respect for others (neighbors, elderly, teachers, principals, bus drivers, etc;). My ex-wife and daughter both teach, ex-wife at Norman North and daughter at South Moore and the stories I hear are hard to believe.

Now, come on. Did that really work?

Heh heh heh! That's what I thought. I went to Catholic school from 4th thru 8th grade, and shiny black patent leather shoes were part of the girls' uniform. By 7th grade my friends and I developed an unhealthy (but normal) interest in girls' shoes!

The green car at the FotoMat is a '69 Fiat 850 Spider. I owned a blue '71, loved that car.

Okay, I've read all of these to catch up and I haven't seen...

Watching your Mom wash clothes in a galvanized tub with a washboard on the kitchen floor...
Getting a bath in that same tub (I was really small, maybe 2 or 3)
"Swimming" in a big wash tub in the summer, or running through the sprinkler...

Tooth powder instead of toothpaste, shake it on your palm, a few drops of water, rubbing your tootbrush in it...

Having a Hot faucet and a Cold faucet, not one in the middle, putting the stopper in the sink or tub and trying to get 'em mixed just right. In "A Christmas Story" their bathroom sink is like that.

Finding horny toads in the back yard, the little ones were really cute...yes, that's what we called 'em.

Mike, I do remember H.I.S. jackets, can't find one now for anything. Turn the collar up just right, wear it with a pocket t-shirt from Penney's, Levis (stopped rolling up the legs about 6th grade) and Weejuns, no pennies. For a while chuka boots were in, then wheat jeans, and white Levi's.

Car coats, moose coats, pea coats from the surplus store at 10th & Classen

Girls putting their hair up in curlers EVERY night.
Lustre-creme shampoo.
When everything came in glass containers and you were bound to break something (the Lustre-creme shampoo jar,lol) like the Miracle Whip jar, your Dad would swat you for breaking something because "money doesn't grow on trees" and you'd get a glass splinter from it a week later that your Mom would get out with a needle (heated with a match or something first) and tweezers...

People have mentioned floor furnaces but no one mentioned the grid shape burn on the bottom of your foot.

A swamp cooler air conditioner with a little clear hose that ran to the back-yard faucet, talk about a place for wasps...

And the best - a Cain's coffee can in your fridge with the bacon grease. We used bacon grease for everything, cooked french fries in it, made green beans great, and we never ran out, because Mom always cooked a big breakfast on Sunday with lots of bacon and real hash browns. And the fried okra with corn meal cooked in that stuff was SO much better than the breaded okra you get today, Grandma cooked the fish grandpa caught with corn meal, too, watch out for the bones.

Both sets of my grandparents lived in Okmulgee. My Dad's parents were poorer, that fish Grandpa caught was all there was, but Grandma would mix a paste of sugar and Hershey's cocoa powder and put it on crackers (the crackers were in one wax paper thing inside the box, 4 crackers across). No dials on the phones in Okmulgee, pick up the phone and operator would say "Number, please". 3613.

My other Gramps owned a "corner" grocery, it was a real treat to get the end of the bologna. He had a candy case and we'd get a little sack and 10 cents worth of candy to take home, a candy bar was a nickel and a 3 Musketeers was big enough for 3 people.
Root beer barrels etc were 2 for a penny.

He had a pop cooler and we'd get one bottle at night, a little room full of pop bottles, what should I get? Nehi Orange, RC (with a pyramid on the bottle), Mr Cola, Double Cola, Squirt, Squeeze, Grapette, 7-Up, Upper 10, Coke, Pepsi, Dr Pepper, Chocolate Soldier...hardest decisions in my life until trying to kiss her or not came along.

Thank the Lord for Pop's, but I do think they all have twist off caps.

No one said anything about IRONING. Didn't everybody have a basket of stuff that needed to be ironed?

A hassock in front of the TV. I was my father's remote control.

And last but not least Mom yelling to go get the clothes off the clothes line, it's starting to rain!

Goodnight and watch out for flying chairs!

I always loved this quote from Danny Williams when he announced Championship Wrestling at the the Stockyard's Coliseum. Loved watching Danny Hodge, Skandar Akbar, Cowboy Bill Watts, Chief Wahoo McDaniel, etc;

How about making a bed out of the area between the backseat and the back window in Dad's '56 Ford and sticking a kid up there so they could go to sleep. No seatbelt or carseat laws to prevent it back then!

For that matter, you could stick the kids in the back of your pickup and go where you wanted without getting to be the star of COPS.

"Swimming" in a big wash tub in the summer, or running through the sprinkler...

Yep. we did that. I still have a scar on my leg where one of the huge rotating/oscillating sprinklers at Harding whacked me when I got too close.


Having a Hot faucet and a Cold faucet, not one in the middle, putting the stopper in the sink or tub and trying to get 'em mixed just right. In "A Christmas Story" their bathroom sink is like that.


One of my priorities on any house we've lived in is the two faucet sink.


Finding horny toads in the back yard, the little ones were really cute...yes, that's what we called 'em.

I used to scare the crap out of my sisters with horny toads. Agreed, that's what they should be called. And crawdads are not "crayfish".

Sounds like my uniform in 9th & 10th grades, if chuka boots are what we called desert boots.


Car coats, moose coats, pea coats from the surplus store at 10th & Classen

Yep, again. Bought Army jackets and coats there in high school. Bought a pair of paratrooper boots there before I made my first static line jump in '78.


People have mentioned floor furnaces but no one mentioned the grid shape burn on the bottom of your foot.

I hope you mean on the bottom of your shoe! If not...ouch! Sneakers would really stink when you stood on the grid, and the aforementioned desert boots would start to sink into the grid as the soles melted.


A swamp cooler air conditioner with a little clear hose that ran to the back-yard faucet, talk about a place for wasps...


Before we got a window unit air conditioner Grandma's house had a swamp cooler. What a waste of electricity with OKC's humidity levels! You had to be sitting right in front of it to get any cool at all.

Alright! Somebody else remembers Squeeze. I liked it a lot more than Nehi or Crush.


Thank the Lord for Pop's, but I do think they all have twist off caps.

They do.


A hassock in front of the TV. I was my father's remote control.

At least there were only 3 channels, and unless you lived within a few miles of KOCO, there were only two.

... For that matter, you could stick the kids in the back of your pickup and go where you wanted without getting to be the star of COPS.

Singing along to the See the USA in a Chevrolet truck horn all the way out and back wherever we were being hauled to that week.

Thank the Lord for Pop's, but I do think they all have twist off caps.

Nope, many of the flavors at Pop's require an opener. All the staff carry one. I do love me some Pop's! Dad's Root Beer, A&W Cream Soda, Chocolate Soldier, Grapette...

A REAL Coca-Cola in a 6 oz bottle, for 5 cents, from a Coke machine that doesn't want to let go of it.

A REAL Coca-Cola from a drugstore fountain where the syrup comes first (from a glass bottle) and the carbonated water is added...in a Coke glass or one of those glasses with the reusable handle.

Basically a real drugstore fountain, altho Nichols Hills Drug makes a good burger.

A car with room enough between the front and back seat for 2 kids to lie down in (like our '51 Studebaker)

A pecan praline from El Charrito

An afternoon paper in OKC

A gas war that takes gasoline from 18.9 down to 14.9

The feeling of being rich when you had a 50 cent piece, or, wow, a silver dollar!

My grandparents took both the DO and the OKCT. The only thing I read in the newspapers when they stopped the Times was the comics. Did both papers have comics? Which ones did they drop when the Times stopped publishing?

I still read the comics every day. We have 3 pages of them in the DMN, used to have 4.

Back to topic: Kids'll never read the newspapers. Does anybody know anyone under 30 who subscribes to home delivery of the newspaper? I don't. We take two papers at our house. Dallas Morning News for me and the Fort Worth Star-Telegram (Startlegram!) for the wife.

The Daily Oklahoman (I think renamed the Oklahoman) is in what they considered to be in an online format. Rather then giving you the whole story they list a little piece and then direct you to the page that contains the larger picture.

They had a huge layoff within the last year. Think they raised the newsstand price to .75 recently. Have no idea what the Sunday price is.

The Daily Oklahoman...Think they raised the newsstand price to .75 recently.
Have no idea what the Sunday price is.
We're paying about $8 a year for the Sunday and Wednesday papers and
it's because of the coupons. We quit taking the Oklahoman a few years
ago because they don't have news on the the front page. Occasionally
they'll slip up and something other than human interest stories will show up
on the front page. Another thing I can't stand is the awful use of grammar.

I remember when teachers would assign homework and it would be to find
misspellings and bad grammar. It was almost impossible. Now you can't
read a story without misspellings and bad grammar.

When the Oklahoman decides to put real news on the front page and stick
the human interest stories with the classifieds we'll take a full subscription.

I hope you mean 80 dollars a year or I'm being royally screwed.

I did the same Prune. I take only the Wednesday and Sunday additions. I only read the Local and State news sections as well as the Sports.

The worst caption I have ever viewed was within the womens section concerning the increased use of ultrasound;

Womb with a View

For a comparison The Austin American Statesman is 1.00 Monday-Saturday and 2.00 on Sunday, it is 22.00 a month for a subscription on the auto-pay plan. They have an electronic version as well but I have never looked at it, just the regular online like I look at The Oklahoman most every day.

Supposedly, the Oklahoman and other newspapers are hurting because of the internet. Fewer subscribers and people picking up papers in places they are sold.

For the same reason I'll never buy or use a Kindle, I prefer to hold a hard-copy in my hands. A newspaper or book is lighter than a laptop, Kindle or iPad; it'll never lock up; there's just something satisfying about holding paper instead of looking at pixels.

I do understand the financial aspect of it, it's just my preference.

We take the paper mainly because it is "easier to read" than the electronic versions. I take it during the week and usually read it during lunch, when my wife is off during the week I leave it for her and try to read some at lunch on my iPhone but it sure isn't as convenient even with dedicated aps. I do pull the Fry's ad out on Fridays and take it with me leaving her the rest of the paper. I read a bunch of different news sources, most of them I could not "subscribe" to a paper version here, the NY Times or Wall Street Journal are about the only ones.

Yeah, besides the DMN and FWS-T I also get Today's Headlines emailed from the NYT.

Kicking a soccer ball

While strange, it was nice to know there were three Latino kids occupied and not running the streets!

Not having to apply sunscreen before you do anything outside for more than 15 minutes.

As a kid we collected and crushed cans to donate to the recycling center. I don't see this much anymore.
But if kids of the future do it, it will be less for fun and more for necessity.

Seems like kids will have less need for keys in the future. Seeing more cars with not only key-less entry but key-less startup. And many houses have key-less entry options as well.

Remember a time before energy drinks? Those seem to be the norm now.

My son just turned 16, and while he doesn't subscribe, he's an avid newspaper junkie like his dad. We both read the Oklahoman, Norman Transcript, Tulsa World and Dallas Morning News everyday.
