Everything new is not always better, my kids would give the world to grow up in the world we grew up in.

A very minor window into things for sure, but my experience as a young lawyer was just infinitely better and more meaningful than the experience our younger lawyers in the same firm have now. It's night and day.

My kids would be quite mystified with my argument that riding our bikes around town and hanging out behind stores doing nothing and drinking beers on the side of the Southern State parkway was more magical than playing computer games or chess in real time with friends in Tokyo.

I'm 60 now, and already sick and tired of the endless variations on "good old days" discussions. Everything was magical when I was a kid. Just didn't recognize it I guess. A few decades more of sugar coated nostalgia to look forward to I guess before I hit the ground. Was at a gate heading to Florida last winter at one of the NY airports and all it was was 60-90 year olds yakking about how great everything was when they were a kid and how terrible it all is today. Fun stuff.

Great auction memory lane. Nice pick ups everyone. Always nice to see buyers and sellers enjoying this great hobby.
