True. I miss them living in Western Washington. TNP owns and still uses a turntable for playing music (I haven’t since the early 80s–not that there’s anything wrong with it). ---

True. I have my Pioneer turntable that I bought around 45 years ago. Still works like a champ. TNP remembers his or her 4th grade teacher fairly well. ---

Well, not one standout, but several. I’m blessed with a very nice extended family. TNP remembers hearing this song when it first came out: [I've Got to Use My Imagination - Gladys Knight and the Pips - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0kPFrQPdKPM) ---

False. I was 2 years old in 1973. The next poster agrees that this is the greatest rock and roll song of all time: [Iggy Pop - Repo Man - YouTube](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8JFYGW0epaw) Great drum work, nice guitar, and great bass; it’s about love, loss, teenage angst, and drugs, and is filled with nonsense lines… ---

False. Black, red and blue, but not green. The Next Poster has been known to say “Padiddle” when seeing a car with only one working headlight. ---

False. Cannot recall ever hearing “Gazonkle”. Or “Padiddle”. TNP once earned money driving a truck. ---

Absulutely. Even clipped a parked truck when taking a turn too tight. Blamed the wife for renting too big of a truck. TNP flosses daily. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk ---

No, only weekly, and more often as needed (such as with corn on the cob and beef jerky). TNP loves beef jerky. ---

False. Not anymore, anyway. I owned one decades ago, crashed it, and have not been on one since. TNP is not 100% sure what they are having for their next meal. ---
