When I was about twelve years old the gas was 19 cents per gallon. I do
remember that. I also remember the Green Stamps and Top Value Stamps. In fact I
found a whole bunch of them when I was cleaning last summer. I also found the
picture of my first GSD Rocky. I got him when I was 14 years old. I told my
father that I wanted a GSD. He went out and came home with a Schnauzer. I said
to him, does that look like a GSD to you? You had better take that dog back
from wherever you found it. He did and I had my GSD a week later! I learned to
drive on a 1955 Chevy. That was a long time ago!!!!
