Verticle and horizontal hold....we also had tin foil on the rabbit ears and a pair of vise grips on the channel knob when it was broke or lost

Back then we were the remotes of our day. Dad would sit in his chair and tell me or my brother to turn it up, down, change the channel or mess with the rabbit ears to get a better signal.

I still remember when we got our first color tv. Man what a day that was.

NOTE, this only works if you have two knives or one pair of tweezers

Yup we live in a cotton wool society. Used to have airgun fights, sneaking through the woods but you were only allowed to shoot someone in the arse. Girls were allowed to play too, no discrimination.

We used to play ARMY with BB guns. Had dirt clod fights(one street against another) and nobody died or went home and got a gun. You just tried harder next time. Winners got trophies and everyone else tried harder next time.

Not true. One knife in the socket works. I am a survivor from about 1966.

Chariots. They only had chariots and carts.

What? You think the wheel had been invented yet?

My grandfather's livingroom had a console TV (broke), TV on top (broke), tv on a cart next to it (broke), little TV on top of it (working).
