Vacuum tube radios.  Cameras that take film in 4"x5" sheets.  Cameras that take film.  Ice cream scoops.  Potato peelers...

Earth my body, water my blood, air my breath and fire my spirit.

My personal transition path included medical changes.  The path others take may require no medical intervention, or different care.  We each find our own path. I provide these dates for the curious.

Or taking an old pair of roller skates, hammering them down and attaching them to a board to make a skate board. Or Swanson tv dinners in metal trays.

When I was first a kid we didn't have all the space garbage that's up there now.  Heaven was up there and hell was below.

Politicians being considered trustworthy by default.  TV stations going "Off the air."  Cars with huge amounts of room inside that put absolutely no effort into niceties like fuel efficiency or crash safety.  Beer being uniformly devoid of flavor, irrespective of brand.  Cell phones with cords attached to huge battery packs.
