and then there were the cold war years...
Duck and Cover...Air raid drills in school included opening the windows, getting under your desk, folding your arms over your head. Conelrad triangle markings on all radios (up until 1963). In case of attack, tune your radio dial to 640 or 1240... |

I do remember those. Also remember the candy, (or maybe gum?) cigs that were wrapped in paper that had the mysterious white powder that would simulate smoke when you puffed out.

I remember going to the variety store and buying candy for a penny....getting a selection of them in a little brown paper bag. Lola's for a dime.

Got to agree...a great piece on a great sitcom...the series also had the Bailey/Jennifer conundrum...for me, it was Bailey (but then also, it was Mary Ann in Gilligan's Island).
