These are great!
We yelled "car" a bunch on my street.
Yelling "car" was one thing but we ran into the ditch when we heard the distinctive sound of the UPS truck.

My Mom worked at TG&Y, so it was perfect from the start.

Wow, SPOT ON, born in 1948, I remember all of this! Is that good?

Monkey blood! It cured everything together with Vick's Vapo Rub.
I could be wrong but that sure looks like the TG&Y on West Ave in San Antonio. Great memories. Thanks Rocky.
Thanks Rocky! Great memories!
Thanks for the walk down memory lane, my friend.

I resemble that. My playground as a kid was a static display F-106 with the canopy glass breaking and Atlas missile nozzle molds which we would get in and rock and spin for hours.
Thanks Rocky! Every one of those is familiar, and there are too many favorites to say one is better than another.
The one about forcing us to come inside really hit home. Our Dad just whistled really loudly near nightfall, and you'd better be home within a minute or two, or else!
Oh yeah, anyone remember catching fireflies and putting them in a glass container with holes in the lid?
Another one was the cleaning of a scrape or strawberry with soap and hot water. My Dad, "Aw quit cryin', I haven't even touched you yet!"
Another great one compliments of my Mom (God rest her soul) when my brother and I were jumping our bikes off the driveway into the flooded ditch, "Watch out for the Water Moccasins!"
I could go on and on, but you covered quite a few already. Thanks again!

Been a regular FUNNIES reader for quite some time and never posted, HOWEVER, I had to say this may be my favorite ever. If that makes me old, so be it!
One of my all time Sunday Funnies. That was pretty much me in all those memes. Turned out ok, I guess.
Thanks for the walk down memory lane. It was a good life even if we didnt know it then.

How long do you want to ignore this user?
Momolot said to thank you for the laughs.
People of integrity expect to be believed, when they're not, they let time prove them right.
Thanks, Rocky. My knees and a hip hear you loud and clear.
If you think I am a liberal, you are incorrect. Assume sarcasm on my part. Sorry if something I post has already been posted. Just the way it is!!
These are fantastic!
Blue star for you, Rocky. It's a great day's worth of funnies.
These hit pretty good.
What a great feeling it was when you timed it perfectly and got the music and not the DJ.
I spent so many hours going through the albums and 45s, and don't regret a moment of it.
This was all too "normal" on a rainy day, and in a car without AC.

Brought back many a good memory this morning, Rocky! Thank you!
Pretty sure this is my favorite edition…there is a lot of competition, but this was absolute gold!
Thank you sir!

Thanks a ton Rocky. This made me feel old but I laughed a lot while I enjoyed the trip down memory lane. There will be a record number of stolen memes sent to my kids, nieces and nephews.
Yep.
Possibly...not as a knock on previous episodes....but possibly the best Sunday posting by Rocky ever.
My dad had that very ashtray!!!! :-)
Absolutely perfect. Thank you. I am 62. "Go outside and play. Be back when it gets dark".
That brought back a lot good memories. Thanks Rocky!
Thank you Rocky. I think I just saw my life flash before my eyes. Hope I'm around tomorrow!!!
Judging from the feedback here, this thread is a hit, Pard'.
Looking forward to other Sunday Funnies with blasts from the past! They are fun!
But is it really nostalgia if the good ol' days were just better?

To many truths here to pick just one.
Thanks Rocky

I don't know if it's because we were all young and carefree, but I don't remember politics being involved in so much of our lives back then. Even the adults in those days lived their lives relatively free from politics. Voting was the only political thing they did. Now, we as adults can't escape the encroachment of politics in everything we do, and I don't need to enumerate what that is. I really enjoy the Politics board but sometimes it can be overwhelming.
Those really were the good ol' days.
Elections are when people find out what politicians stand for, and politicians find out what people will fall for.
Good memories brought up here, thanks rocky!
Our parents were Depression era and then WWII. They didn't play as much as children because there were chores and work to do to keep the family fed. Then the war years when they became young adults.
Should not be that surprising that they wanted their kids to be kids and have fun unlike their childhoods. Plus it was vicarious pleasure for parents to see their kids having fun. I know my Dad often played with us, whether just a game of catch, to volleyball, to water skiing, to riding minibikes to flying U-Controls or remote controlled planes and boats.
Still can remember the sounds and smells of those planes with balsa wood and paper with dope to seal them. Whine of that Cox 409 little engine in Dad's big vice grip mounted to his workbench in the garage and the smell of the fuel as he adjusted the carburetor from rich to lean. My brother leaning over his shoulder as Dad explained what he was doing and why. My Dad wasn't called "The Big Kid" for nothing. Was even his CB handle.

Now I can do my chores

This was one of the best ever. Brought back some many memories. Thanks Rocky.
As a kid in Galveston we played football in the street - tackle.
Lots of memories here. Add drinking from the water hose, bottle rockets from a coke bottle, Daisy BB guns, water balloon fights and losing teeth with a string and a doorknob. Classic Americana.
