    Ah! I had Aron's on Melrose, across from Fairfax High, my alma mater. Many hours and dollars and sweet times spent there.

    Husband had Woody's in Columbus.

    (that is NOT how it sounds)

    I remember when, yeah
    I swore I knew everything, oh yeah
    Let's say knowledge is a tree, yeah
    It's growing up just like me, yeah
    I'm so light the wind he shakes
    I'm so high the sky I scrape
    I'm so light I hold just one breath and go back to my nest
    Sleep with innocence...

    A fantastic song that I just can't get enough of.

    You're the only one that can relate to that, Brian.

    But I can relate to $4.99 lol!

    I'd settle for $4.99! :smiley:

    On the other hand, I shouldn't complain. Using the CPI inflation calculator, a record on sale in 1967 for $3.99 would run $29.10 today. That's about right.

    Bette's one of the best to follow on Twitter. She's still witty after all these years. Ruthless People is my favorite black comedy ever.

    Remember when you made car models that look like this?:


    (Crazy car models by Ed "Big Daddy" Roth. My brother and I had a few of these.)
    “The fear of death follows from the fear of life. A man [or woman] who lives fully is prepared to die at any time.”
    Variously credited to Mark Twain or Edward Abbey.
