The Good Old Days

I miss the good old days:

When an extra key for my car cost only a couple of dollars to make.
When my car did not automatically lock me inside it and possibly trap me inside after a bad accident.
When car makers did not think we're all stupid and need electronic sensors to tell us common sense things.
When car engines were simpler and less expensive to repair.
When gas was only 99 cents a gallon.

I miss the good old days:

When we did not have to hear other people's telephone conversations in stores and restaurants.
When there wasn't so much fast food and processed food to make us overweight and give us health problems.
When our corn, wheat, and other foods were not genetically modified.
When people still wrote letters.

I miss the good old days:

When families could watch a movie or television show together without getting embarrassed by it's contents.
When children grew up playing games outdoors in the sunshine and fresh air, and were not indoors too much. playing with their electronic devices and not getting enough exercise.

I miss the good old days:

When we did not feel that we had to be so politically correct in the things we wrote and said.
When we did not feel that our constitutional rights were being taken away from us.
When it was very obvious who was a man and who was a woman.

I miss the good old days.
