It used to be. It’s not a fraction what it was

Yea TC's right.
It used to be here were so many new posts you simply couldn't read but a fraction of them. Most just read a few forums and never touched the others.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero

Just check out the glamour shots of guys forging razors and eating BBQ at the big 2020 SRP meet, and you will have covered most of the important stuff.

Oh that may be so and I'm not trying to be a smart@$$. I just remember my mother saying that any time someone talked about the good ol days. Both my parents were born in the 1920s. I remember once saying to them how the 30s was a cool time with the styles of the cars and clothes and architecture and the music. Before I could finish the sentence they started back and forth with, "Yeah, and the depression...and prohibition...and segregation...and rationing...and no air conditioning..."

No, I did not think you were being a smart@$$. Just that as much as I like Will Rogers sayings sometimes circumstances do not fit. There definitely is a tendency for people to put a rosy glow on the past conveniently forgetting the bad parts. Originally Posted by PaulFLUS

The bottom line is if we were back in the 1930s or before most of us who are here today would be long dead probably having died of medical issues or accidents. I know I wouldn't be around.
So it's nice waxing poetically about the good old days but they were really the bad old days.BobH likes this.No matter how many men you kill you can't kill your successor-Emperor Nero
