Are you... OLD? You are if you recognize these... (add your own).

It cost a lot to take pictures to send into Activision for a patch. Today we can just snap away on our phones.

My dad was so mad when I "wasted" film on the patch scores.  And of course, we all had to learn that hard lesson of NOT using a flash!  Two weeks later of course.  Oh well, lets play again!

Yeah, the Polaroid would have been ideal.  Plus Dad would have had less of a chance of knowing.  But sadly, we did not have that kind.  Our family had the Kodak Instamatic with the 110 film cartridges.

Not me.  I hated Blackberry with a passion.

How about these old mimeograph machines from grade school?  The copies came out purple and they smelled good.

Oh yes, many times used while in high school!

Friends, we aren't old....we're EXPERIENCED!

Who remembers this crap...you'd have to wait two weeks to see how terrible your pictures were 🙂

Oh gosh!  Some memories are better left dead!  I cannot tell you how many pictures I took with my 110 instamatic POS camera only to get back blurry pictures.  When digital cameras came out I was so ecstatic!

When our oldest was 7 he spent the summer in NYC with both sets of grandparents. We gave him a Polaroid to take with him and to this day, he has an album full of pictures that he took from that summer. The camera might still be in his apartment. 

Actually you can really jazz up those old polaroid photos by scanning them into your computer, uploading them << HERE >> for an A.I. enlargement, then adjust the newly enlarged picture(s) on your own computer.

I had these intercoms and really enjoyed them, until new neighbors moved in next door with a pair on the same frequency.  I ended up having to buy a new set with multiple channels.  Radio Shack.
