How times change ...
I was listening to the radio this morning and a competition came on, with $1,000 on offer to the winner.
However, the contestant didn't do too well and collected $100.
"What will you buy with that $100?" was asked of him.
He answered something or other (the electronic media, to me, is just a lot of background noise, with meaningless drivel being right up there in the name of entertainment).
And I thought, "These days, a hundred bucks will get you a carton of beer and a packet of smokes, if you're not too particular about quality."
Ah, memories ...
