'I'll
tell you one thing, if things keep going the way they are, it's going to be
impossible to b uy a week's groceries for $20.00.
'
'Have
you seen the new cars coming out next year? It won't be long before $2, 000.
00
will only buy a used one.
'
'If
cigarettes keep going up in price, I'm going to quit.
A quarter a pack is
ridiculous.
'Did
you hear the post office is thinking about charging a dime just to mail a
letter?'
'If
they raise the minimum wage to $1.
00, nobody will be able to hire outside help
at the store.

'When
I first started driving, who would have thought gas would someday cost 29
cents a gallon. Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage.
'
'Kids
today are impossible.
Those duck tail hair cuts make it impossible to stay
groomed.
Next thing you know, boys will be wearing their hair as long as the
girls.
'
'I'm
afraid to send my kids to the movies any more.
Ever since they let Clark Gable get by with
saying DAMN in GONE WITH THE WIND, it seems every new movie has either HELL or
DAMN in it.

'I
read the other day where some scientist thinks it's possible to put a man on
the moon by the end of the century.
They even have some fellows they call
astronauts preparing for it down in Texas .

'Did
you see where some baseball player just signed a contract for $75,000 a year
just to play ball? It wouldn't surprise me if someday they'll be making more
than the President.

'I
never thought I'd see the day all our kitchen appliances would be
electric. They are even making electric typewriters now.

'It's
too bad things are so tough nowadays.
I see where a few married women are
having to work to make ends meet.

'It
won't be long before young couples are going to have to hire someone to watch
their kids so they can bo th work.

'Marriage
doesn't mean a thing any more, those Hollywood stars seem to be getting
divorced at the drop of a hat.
'
'I'm
afraid the Volkswagen car is going to open the door to a whole lot of foreign
business.
'
'Thank
goodness I won't live to see the day when the Government takes half our income
in taxes. I sometimes wonder if we are electing the best people to congress.
'
'The
drive-in restaurant is convenient in nice weather, but I seriously doubt they
will ever catch on.
'
'There
is no sense going to Lincoln or Omaha anymore for a weekend,
it costs nearly $15.00 a night to stay in a hotel .
' < /FONT>
'No
one can afford to be sick anymore, at $35.
00 a day in the hospital it's too
rich for my blood.
'
'If
they think I'll pay 50 cents for a hair cut, forget it.

Know
any friends who w ould get a kick out of these, pass this on! Be sure and send
it to your kids and grandkids too!
