I may only be 27, but I can't help but catch myself telling my kids

"Way back when I was a kid fuel was less than a dollar!"

And of course my 11 year old say of course "Oh Dad, you're just old...."

I can't help but think I may really be old.

Gimme your chips or I'll beat you with a dead cat... No really, gimme your chips!

Hey, I remember during my first year driving, every once in a while, gas would dip down to 98 cents/gal. When I was a kid, my folks could put a full tank in a station wagon for 10 bucks.

When I was a kid you could fill up for $5 and all the cars had tanks with at least 20 gallons.

cigartettes were 33cents a pack

I bought my first car (an oldsmobile) in 1973 and it was $2850.

i'm 28 with no kids, i'd say you are no where near old.

Hope your day is going as well as mine Monte

Jeff: When you pay for gas with a big bill, and get alot of change do you often find that you get paid with an American nickle?

I've litterally got a milk jug full of canadian change that I've got back as change over the years.

I'm only 18 and I remember when gas was under $1. The lowest it was since I've been able to drive was like 1.49 but still thats a huge change for 2 years.

I thought the Rockie Mountains would be a little rockier I was thinking the same thing That John Denver's full of shit
