When Liam's grandmother was born there was: no moon landing, no rock & roll, only rotary phones (Today, I think you can see one in the Smithstonian), color had only just been invented so the few existing TV's had to be upgraded, a functioning NYS Legislature, no car seats, no cribs (babies slept in a bureau drawer) and pre-school meant working on the farm!
actually rock and roll evolved in the late forties and I think I remember seeing in color shortly after I was born, so it must have been around for awhile.
This picture made me think that when Col was born - no laptops, no PC's, no cells.
