This is SO true. Does it make a person wish for the "Good Old Day's"?Jerry Dean From: jrainville1947@bresnan.net To: palmertree@rootsweb.com Subject: Fw: Fw: This is not nostalgia. It is the price we all pay for easy street. Date: Mon, 25 Feb 2013 09:59:23 -0700 the price we all pay for easy street. 'Checking out at the store, the young cashier suggested to the much older woman, that she should bring her own grocery bags because plastic bags weren't good for the environment. The woman apologized and explained, "We didn't have this 'green thing' back in my earlier days." The young clerk responded, "That's our problem today. Your generation did not care enough to save our environment for future generations." She was right -- our generation didn't have the 'green thing' in its day. Back then, we returned milk bottles, soda bottles and beer bottles to the store. The store sent them back to the plant to be washed and sterilized and refilled, so it could use the same bottles over and over. So they really were recycled. But we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day. Grocery stores bagged our groceries in brown paper bags, that we reused for numerous things, most memorable besides household garbage bags, was the use of brown paper bags as book covers for our schoolbooks. This was to ensure that public property, (the books provided for our use by the school) was not defaced by our scribbling. Then we were able to personalize our books on the brown paper bags. But too bad we didn't do the "green thing" back then. We walked up stairs, because we didn't have an escalator in every store and office building. We walked to the grocery store and didn't climb into a 300-horsepower machine every time we had to go two blocks. But she was right. We didn't have the "green thing" in our day. Back then, we washed the baby's diapers because we didn't have the throwaway kind. We dried clothes on a line, not in an energy-gobbling machine burning up 220 volts -- wind and solar power really did dry our clothes back in our early days. Kids got hand-me-down clothes from their brothers or sisters, not always brand-new clothing. But that young lady is right; we didn't have the "green thing" back in our day. Back then, we had one TV, or radio, in the house -- not a TV in every room. And the TV had a small screen the size of a handkerchief (remember them?), not a screen the size of the state of Montana . In the kitchen, we blended and stirred by hand because we didn't have electric machines to do everything for us. When we packaged a fragile item to send in the mail, we used wadded up old newspapers to cushion it, not styrofoam or plastic bubble wrap. Back then, we didn't fire up an engine and burn gasoline just to cut the lawn. We used a push mower that ran on human power. We exercised by working so we didn't need to go to a health club to run on treadmills that operate on electricity. But she's right; we didn't have the "green thing" back then. We drank from a fountain when we were thirsty instead of using a cup or a plastic bottle every time we had a drink of water. We refilled writing pens with ink instead of buying a new pen, and we replaced the razor blades in a razor instead of throwing away the whole razor just because the blade got dull. But we didn't have the "green thing" back then. Back then, people took the streetcar or a bus and kids rode their bikes to school or walked instead of turning their moms into a 24-hour taxi service in the family's $45,000 SUV or van, which cost what a whole house did before the "green thing." We had one electrical outlet in a room, not an entire bank of sockets to power a dozen appliances. And we didn't need a computerized gadget to receive a signal beamed from satellites 23,000 miles out in space in order to find the nearest burger joint. But isn't it sad that the current generation laments how wasteful we old folks were just because we didn't have the "green thing" back then? Please forward this on to another selfish old person who needs a lesson in conservation from a young person... We don't like being old in the first place, so it doesn't take much to piss us off...especially from a smartass who can't make change without the cash register telling them how much. The end !'

Peggy, you wouldn't have to be fast to escape that ghost, you just have to not be the last one in line running. ha ha I always say I don't believe in ghosts but there have been some strange things happen. Once when we were stationed in the high desert in Calif. in the early 70's, while our four kids were in school, Joe and I decided to drive down over Cajone Pass to San Bernadino to go xmas shopping. While walking down that cold windy street shopping I got an uncontrollabe urge to call home. Joe of course was saying that's silly, there's no one home. But it was a strong feeling, so I stopped in a drugstore and used the pay phone. David, our oldest son about 12-13 yrs anwered our phone at home. He had gotten hurt at school and the prinicipal had brought him home. He wasn't hurt much at all and of course we were headed home after that. But what made me get that strange unusual urge to call our empty house? There's been other little things over the years. But never saw any images of people walking around or what I think of as ghost stuff. I flew out to see son Tom at Norfolk VA, on the way to the airport when I was leaving, I spotted the Edgar Cayce? Institute and Museum. We had plenty of time, we stopped and had fun looking around at the exhibits etc. We took the ESP test where I sat on one side of a divided table with Tom on the other. The clerk there that day was even surprised at the ESP (that's the wrong word but can't remember the right one this morning) that Tom and I had. Others there that day were taking the test and not testing out high like we did. I teased Tom as we drove on to the airport that it was because I had taught him everything that he knew. ha ha It was interesting. I reconised Edgar Cayce's name because that was when I worked at the library and there was a very popular book about him at the time. Gotta run, Nova . In a message dated 3/11/2013 11:42:54 P.M.

Peggy, here is a link to the momument to Laura Kelly you talked about in the Kosy City Cemetery. Back in the early 1970's I lived across the street from where they were building the new Baptist Hospital (Congress Street maybe??). At one time my brother was in the old Baptist HOspital. Seems there was a tunnel that went under State Street? That thing was spooky enough without a ghost! Jeannine Kirkpatrick Smith
Thanks to Jeannine & Beth. Bet on a full moon night, she really shines.
I lived in the nurse's dormitory right behind the hospital from June of 1950 to June 1951 and was in the hospital almost every day. I can't say I was ever bothered by ghosts but its probably Mrs. Gaddis and Mrs. Nehuse ghost. They were bad enough alive! I witnessed an autoposy on a little dried up man who had been one of my patients and he could be mad about the way they handled him!

Go by what is now the Baptist -south, there is a building that was the old one, & it was turned into apartments or offices. It is across the street. That is the one I remember. Could be another one that is older. But I remember going to visit someone there when I was small.
