If they are still going strong today, like Javiers, St Martins and Campisis, do they not count?

Drinking age was 18 back then.

It darn sure was. The year I turned 21 they changed the drinking age to 21. Man, that was close. cheers Dodged a bullet there.

If the 2nd amendment was written just to include guns for hunting, why is there not an amendment to protect fishing poles?

Oh, wow. Forgot about Dolly's. Never had any work there. But, made many a trip up and down 121 and 289. Always high roller cars in front.

We cruised Forest in the early 70s. I will never forget my brother and his buddies stopping at the grocery to buy turkey necks. I will let you guess what they used them for. I remember driving central at 70 mph at any time of day.

Mothers Blues was a classic along with Bronco Bowl and Circle Bowl. I remember dad taking us to Bronco Bowl to shoot our Fred Bear recurves. There were other bars in Dallas that we hung out in but don't remember names. One was in Medallion Center. In the early 80s I stuck close to home. There were 2 bars side by side in Richardson off Arapahoe that were my hang outs. I knew the owners and bartenders at both. Back then if we wanted licgour we had to drive to Centennial on Walnut Hill.

Did anybody on here ever make it into the Playboy club? I remember seeing the bunny sign on central expressway, and once I learned what it was I swore I would go there. Unfortunately it closed too soon for me to make it

I just cleaned out and shredded a bunch of old papers and BS I've had for years
One of the things that I tossed was several VIP courtesy cards I got from who
knows where. Playboy club, Penthouse club ( I don't remember that, but I had
the card, so . . .) several other places. Probably one of the vendors from the
good old days when business lunch meant the male sales rep taking you to
the nudie bar for canned pork chops

Thinking of all that, does anyone remember what automotive
vendors had all the attractive female reps that came to visit
dressed in the mini skirts and tight tight low cut silk tops
and the high heeled boots?
Getting old now, and I can't remember what company it was
