When Netflix sent movies in the mail. And Amazon started selling used college textbooks

I recently read that Netflix only stopped sending DVDs out last year (or maybe 2021?). I thought that was so crazy!

I’m so old I remember when roller skates had metal wheels

"Something for the weekend, sir?" was originally a euphemistic question asked by British barbers when offering condoms to their customers.

Not something I was asked, but I was aware that it was a thing.

A dry and wet grinder ,used it a lot in the early 60s.
A brass body was considered superior but this cast iron one worked better.
