I'm sure they just hammered away at each other!. Weren't babbies invented in the 50s!?!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

TV has been arould since the 1940s, so, right away, I would suggest you get some facts straight!.

Radio has been popular since BEFORE the 1920s!. Cars, even before that!.

Heck, I STILL don't have an iPod!

For fun!? Played baseball, football, went swimming, read books, danced to rock & roll, surfed, rode roller coasters made of wood, went to movies featuring aliens, gangsters, war heros, hot women!. Ate tacos, burgers, Chinese food and apple pies!. Made out with my girlfriend, watched the city lights from the foothills and played my guitar!. Went to parties and sneaked a little mind altering substances including beer and Mary Jane!.

I dreamed and planned for a future!. Earned a little money which I spent on junk food, music and clothes my parents didn't like!.

After that, I fed my dinosaur and went to sleep in my cave!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

As a child of the 50s and 60s, I mostly played with my Barbie dolls, listened to the transistor radio, and watched black and white TV!. I rode my bike, played tin can alley, played softball, played in the creek, hiked in the woods !.!.!.!. pretty boring, huh!?Www@QuestionHome@Com

for sure, life was really difficult for people living in the 1950s and '60s!. we only had b&w tvs, radio, cars and would you believe planes too!. yeah, it was a real bummer!. Www@QuestionHome@Com

I believe it was quite possible that it was the best time in history!. People were actually able to think for themselves and make their own intertainment!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
