My Mother's uncle (the one I think had Aspergers/HFA) helped to construct the first drive-in in our town back in the late 1940's.

There was one minutes from my house. Our parents used to take us to Disney double features when we were children.
By the time I was in high school, the drive-in had gone out of business, and the big screen stood abandoned and peeling for years
until another business moved in and tore it down.  :-\

The same has happened here in Australia. I remember watching Crocodile Dundee at the drive-ins.

It would be a real experience to go to the drive-ins as the driver. I wish I got to experience that.

Guess our climate made it that drive ins never made it here.

They were starting a sail-in this year. For the glamorous people I guess.

Drive-ins have disappeared here. In Brisbane we have a lot of outdoor cinemas in parks.

I went to one once, to see Sean of the Dead (not my choice). Basically we drank a lot on a picnic blanket...don't even know what the movie was about!

Malt Balls, 3 Musketeers, chocolate covered cherries

Homemade vegetable soup (found out by accident that it was the Worcestershire Sauce that made it taste that way)

Not to gross anyone out:  Liver and onions and grits, Stewed Tripe

Permanent waves (horrible experience)

skinned knees

I still like to do that.

Do remember the glass I trod in as a kid though. Got me a bit more careful.

Remember the GP wanting to see my foot every other week, because he was sure there was embedded glass in it.
Horrible, all the time I spent in that always crowded waitingroom of his.

That is a thing that did improve. Getting appointments on time with doctors.

I remember the first moments of my birth. I was all cold and stuff, and when I refused to cry, one of the doctors slapped my ass. I pissed on him, so he dropped me. It was right then that I spoke my first words. "Fuck you."
