Some of us actually studied and built mobile radios that we put in our cars, along with heavy duty generators to handle the electric load. We had slide rules. Most teachers wouldn't let us use them in class. It was cheating. TV was black and white and resolution and programing was so poor, I didn't watch it. For fun? We went to the local short track for the Saturday night Sprint car or Midget races. There was a lot of hot rodding and street racing going on too. Can't say it was safe, but I bet we had a helluva lot more fun than kids today. I took flying lessons too. Also learned to play a musical instrument. Played in the high school symphony orchestra. Friends had jazz bands, played at local clubs.</p></blockquote><p></p>
