When people ask how old I am, I’m just going to say that my childhood dentist had a cigarette machine in his waiting room.

They were great! Bright lights! Lots of colors and drawings! Bonkers to pull! And if you won a prize, Mom and Dad would be happy and you get ice cream!

This reminded me that in the 90s, we had a local restaurant that wasn't a fast food joint that had a kids play place type room in it. Unfortunately that place later turned into a different restaurant, and later a dollar store. It was next door to a blockbuster. So, overall not the most lasting plaza...

My old man used to love a lunchtime pint or five on a Saturday.

I rather enjoyed getting to sit round the corner with a large coke and a bowl of chips, watching the Formula One qualifying, dicking about with the fag machine, and spinning the tracklisting boards of the jukebox.

Hell yeah! So many sophisticated brands!

Kids in my day just smoked crack in the back alley.
