He was a trained radio and TV repairman, when those had tubes. I wish he was still around. When did we become a throwaway society?

riding lawn mowers, garage door openers and many, many more things we take for granted today. Ours was smaller (about 700 square feet) – 2 bedrooms (my brother and I shared one and my parents the other), a kitchen and a living room, No basement or garage. There were no garage door openers.
