"I'll tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, its going to be impossible to buy a weeks groceries for 20.00." "Have you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long when 5,000 will only buy a used one." "If cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit. A quarter a pack is ridiculous". "Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just to mail a letter". "If they raise the minimum wage to $1, nobody will be able to hire outside help at the store." "When I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 29 cents a gallon. Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage," "Kids today are impossible. Those ducktail hair cuts make it impossible to stat groomed. Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as long as girls," "I'm afraid to send my kids to the movies any more. Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with saying damn in "Gone With The Wind", it seems every new movie has either hell or damn in it." "I read the otther day that some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on the moon by the end of the century. They even have some fellows they call astronauts preparing for it down in Texas." "Did you see where some baseball player just sighned a contract for $75,000 a year just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday that they will be making more than the President." "I never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be electric. They are even making electric typewriters now." -------------------- Look Ma, I'm banned!
