Share with us a personal "I'm so old" story.

I'm so old I remember when carnivals still featured freak shows.

EDIT: I remember my parents got a "baby bonus" from the gov't of $8 per month for me in the 1950s !!

I remember the time when TV in Australia still lay in the future - and I listened to "serials" on the "wireless".

@craig7
Blue Hills?
Portia Faces Life?

@Gusman Er,no.My favourites back in the mid-'50s were "The Air Adventures of Hop Harrigan" and "The Sea Hound".Also "The Shadow" sounded like it would be interesting,but my parents wouldn't let me listen to that.

@craig7 I only remember these two.
There were others but most likely from the 60s.
