100 Things Your Kids May Never Know About

Cool article about things your kids may never know about.
Inserting a VHS tape into a VCR to watch a movie or to record something.
Rotary dial televisions with no remote control. You know, the ones where the kids were the remote control.
The scream of a modem connecting.
The buzz of a dot-matrix printer
Joysticks.
Finding out information from an encyclopedia.
When Spam was just a meat product — or even a Monty Python sketch.
CB radios.
Fax machines
Vacuum cleaners with bags in them
Remembering someone’s phone number
Finding books in a card catalog at the library
and my favorite
The days before the nanny state.

Check out the rest of them...and feel old.
