    Yeah. I once dated a stripper. Oh she was in splendid shape. But looked totally different off stage. No makeup, hair tied back.She looked like a soccer mom. Track pants and t shirts were her usual wear. She hated platform shoes. Couldn't blame her. I had to abide by the clubs rules and stay out of her place, even when she wasn't working.

    We went to Graceland, too. I was particularly interested in the kitchen, being in the kitchen remodeling business then. It was typical of the hundreds of kitchens I ripped out and hauled to the dump, but back then, that must have been some high dollar stuff. :)

    I did one remodel that had the grooviest ‘60s laminate counter top, and I just couldn’t toss it out. I repurposed it and put it in my mancave/workshop. Looks cool AF.

    Microwaves went from weighing 500lbs to light as a feather, too. Everything was built to survive a Soviet nuclear attack, I think. :D

    I remember when my mom and dad first got a microwave. Pop thought it was the greatest thing since sliced bread.
    I remember seeing the early home video recorders of the kind I heard Elvis had. They were so big they took up the whole top of a big cabinet TV. Elvis liked them because he could record football games and watch them at his leisure. When he was spending his usual dusk til Dawn routine.

    There was a running joke in the 70s and 80s about what would survive a nuclear war: Rats, roaches, and Tupperware.

    First popular microwaves were around in the early 1950's. As a consumer appliance they actually date back to the late 1940's
    Google "Amana Radar Range"

    Radar range. Story goes that a candy bar was too close to a Navy ship’s radar and it melted. Bingo! New way to reheat your coffee.

    Fast forward forty years and you can buy your dinner from a gas station.

    And nobody seems to understand how almost all of the radar technicians never had children, and if the rare one did, they were usually all girls.

    I was an EA-6B ECMO (electronic countermeasures officer) for eight years. Five jamming pods radiating jillions of watts of power to screw up Russian-made missiles and radars, gold lined canopies, and a slight tingle in the testicles when you turned on Master Rad switch. o_O A similar legend was attached to our job. ECMOs supposedly had fathered a disproportionate number of girls versus boys.

    I had one of each, though.

    Just kidding about the tingling testicles.:D
