That is so funny! 8″ way and they don’t like doing it!

I remember being in the next room and they would yell for me to come change it! LOL You did bring up good memories of the rabbit ears! I totally forgot about those tin foiled treasures!

I think cable tv hit our area when I was 14 or 15. We thought we were in heaven!

While I cook, I “listen” to the news on our television in the family room. Obviously I am in the kitchen, but I always ask one of my kids to turn it on for me. Every time I ask, they complain about having to “push a button on the remote” which is laying 8″ from them. I LOVE to remind them how when I was little, television didn’t have a remote and I had to get up and cross to the other side of the room to change the channel, fix the “rabbit ears”, and turn the volume up or down for my mom and dad…all of which was done without a hint of complaining. For good measure, I then remind them that t.v was in black and white back then, and that I was 12 years old before we got our first color television set!

I forgot about the pliers! Hahahah I so remember doing that!
