This was in 1955.
This is hard to believe. The Year was 1955, ONLY 60 YEARS AGO! WHAT WILL THE
NEXT 60 BRING?
Did you hear the post office is thinking about charging 7 cents 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
25 cents a gallon? Guess we'd be better off leaving the car in the garage.
Did you see where a baseball player just signed a contract for $50,000 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're 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 both
work.
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
government.
The fast food restaurant is convenient for a quick meal, but I seriously doubt
they will ever catch on.
There is no sense going on short trips any more for a weekend. It costs nearly
$2.00 a night to stay in a hotel.
No one can afford to be sick anymore. At $15.00 a day in the hospital, it's too
rich for my blood.
If they think I'll pay 30 cents for a haircut, forget it.
Know any friends who would get a kick out of these, pass this on!
