I'm so sorry that alopecia hit you so early! Have you tried Rogaine?

I can remember a nickel admission for a movie and 5 cents for popcorn... I
can remember when the Five&Dime only charged 5 cents to 10 cents for goods.
I can remember 50 cents for a pack of smokes and 10 cents for a coffee with
free refills.

I'm going to be 50 this year..... I don't even have one grey hair yet!

We come from a time when cigarette smoking was OK. In our day we mowed
grass. It wasn't worth $100 / ounce. Aids were people that worked for
free.

Fast food meant fish on Friday. We didn't know about instant coffee.

TIME-SHARING meant moments together, like your Dad's Birthday Party.
Hardware meant stuff from a Hardware Store. Software was like flannel
PJ's and slippers.

Made in Japan meant junk.

Making Out meant you had a job that paid the bills. A nickel brought an
ice cream cone, a big bar of candy, a telephone call even a postage
stamp with change.

Your Dad and I are SURVIVORS from another time so celebrate his

Fear not... I have a full head of hair... albeit thinning a bit on the
crown..... but nowhere near bald. It's been like that for years.

Thom Stewart March 20th 05 08:30 PM

Tad,

Do you remember gasoline at 11 cents a gallon. Do you remember a new
Chevy or Ford for $6oo. Do you remember damn few people could afford to
by a new car.

We were born before Fm radio, television, frozen food, plastic,
polioshots, ball point pens,dishwashers, clothes driers, credit cards,
air conditioners, electric blankets, pantyhose, the PILL!

We could get 10 cent for a Saturday afternoon movie if we could find
enough empty soda bottle to take back to the grocery store for deposit.
( Made of glass)

ROCK Music was a Grandma's lullaby sung in a rocking chair

We knew gasoline, car tires, sugar, butter and meat rationing.

I remember unpaved road with three ruts in them. Two made by wagon
wheels and the middle one made by the horse

But WE SURVIVED!! If you remember life then you were born before WW2.
If you were TAD, then you are on our side of the GENERATION GAP!! You're
OLD

Kate;

That is a Blessing I'll miss. I'll never know Grandchildren. My line
ends with my Son and Daughter

My IOU's have been more than "PAID IN FULL" many years ago. I've no
complaints, believe me and thank you.

Maybe you should consider Rogaine then so there is no further depletion...

Capt. Mooron March 20th 05 11:36 PM

No thanks.... I don't take medication unless it's absolutely required.
Maybe an aspirin once or twice a year. I rarely get headaches, maybe once
every five years.... I don't take meds for that either. If the hair wants
to go.. let it.

Anyway... I shave myself bald twice a year as it is.
