  1. In 1967 my teacher take home pay was $352/month. Monthly expenses…. Rent for 2 bedroom 1 bath furnished fourplex apartment in Giddings was $100. Utilities - $15. Car payment for new ‘67 Chevy Malibu - $83. Auto insurance - $21. Total food tab at local grocery store - $32-$35. That’s all I can remember.
  2. I remember when there were no such things as ATMs.
  3. My Missouri native granddad shot lots of squirrels with this Remington .22 Short semiautomatic. Grandma made a pretty good stew with those critters according to him. My brother owns the .22 now. (And to keep this football related, Grandpa never attended a football game in his life)
  4. Makes Ms. Hattie’s M&M Court motel of the 1960s on South Congress look legit.
  5. Good boy, Otis.
  6. I saw Dizzy Dean driving a yellow Stutz Bearcat in downtown St. Louis during the mid 1950s. He was wearing a long white duster, googles and flat cap.
