    A friend and I put a message in a bottle and threw it in the Detroit River.
    A man yelled at us that we just threw away 2 cents!

    Gas price wars circa 1970 in Detroit. 19 cents a gallon. Cars were backed up for blocks waiting in line.

    Holy chit, I've done a lot already!!
    I think I'm a bit younger than you, I'm 47, But I totally remember EVERYTHING was from Sears. Kenmore this, Craftsman that, clothes, lawn equipment, etc. I even bought a pair of earrings for a girlfriend there. Fortunately I still have alot of my Craftsman tools. Man, what a sad decline Sears had :(
