Over these many years, my columns in the local press have featured both historic and nostalgic subjects. The 1988 column "Do You Remember These" was calculated to stir the gray matter in those of us who are card-carrying members of what I jokingly call "WRINKLE CITY." See how many of these long lost vestiges of the past you recall. (Assuming you are old enough, of course!)

- Hi Tom: I remember many of your wonderful "memories,'' especially the movies on Saturday and the toaster in which my mother would burn one side of the bread and either flip it over on the plate or scrape the burned stuff off. She did not like black on a young lady and made we wear brown and white saddle shoes when all my friends wore the more popular black and white version. It was a great childhood and there is nothing "corny'' about recalling such great times. Beat wishes.

- Right you are,Tom. "Wholesome'' is a much better word than "corny.'' Either way, it was a great time to be growing up. Regards.
