Okay "T" I remember all of them, but just watch out with that old ****.G
I also remember when Cigarettes was 23 cents a pack and when you got them in
a vending machine you dropped in a quarter and the two cents was inside the
cellophane wrapper.
That was when two cents was worth something

A few years before that...my father sent me down to get a pack of Luckies, and
gave me 2 dimes. No pennies in the pack coming back and he got angry, thought
I'd swiped them. I was maybe 9-10 (long before PC howls about younger than 18
or whatever buying butts). I didn't see anotehr 18 cent pack of cigarets again
until I got to Parris Island's PX.
