Old? Try this!!

Gunsmoke on the radio and Broderick Crawford was Matt Dillion. Who was Broderick Crawford? why he was the CHP guy on Highway Patrol. Now that's old. How about the Shadow. Boston Blackie. Peter Gunn. Perry Mason.Winky Dink and You (Me)? Man do I feel old.

Careful, or Mini will change "Hammer and Coop" to a "Car 54" theme...

Originals of Dragnet, perhaps?

Oh man, I still watch Perry Mason in reruns. That show brings back all kinds of good memories.
Westerns, even though I was a young teen, Branded was my favorite of that genre.

I just got my first issue of MC2 in the mail yesterday. There is an article in it about a 100 year old just picking up his second MINI. Not that I am exactly a spring chicken, but the guy looks younger than me.
