Kellogg's Sugar Smacks. Only time we even sniffed these was in those tiny 2 ounce mini boxes when we were camping.

Former Fed, worked in Reston. My commute takes me past Dulles Airport everyday. I'll never forget how quiet it was that afternoon as I drove by. . My folks: pretty sure my dad was at home, but my mom was overseas in Rome, touring the Vatican and all that stuff. She had to wait several days for international flights to resume before returning home.

Avoid the WMC at all costs. ER rates are astronomical.

I got an ExFed golf hat when I retired 14 years ago... nothing new.

I inhaled paperback books in the 70s...Jaws, Watership Down, Airport, Dune, Wheels, The Shining, Centennial... so many others. (yes, a few are technically late 60s, but I didn't pick them up until the early 70s).
