Them 'Good Ole Days'

A while back a well known copy and paste master wrote a Blog called
BLACK AND WHITE. I find it very interesting when anybody refers to a
time called THE GOOD OLD DAYS. I know by experience that the author 99%
of the time is a White Anglo Saxon Protestant Male. Usually of a
Conservative bent. The piece reflects the good times had by the person
from their own perspective with a complete lack of perspective of what
those 'good ole days' were to some people. I urge anyone reading this to
read the words of BLACK AND WHITE BEFORE reading what is to follow.
THIS IS MR. COPY AND PASTE'S BLACK AND WHITE BLOG:
Black and White by Tot.
Under age 60? You won't understand.)
You could hardly see for all the snow, Spread the rabbit ears as far as they go.
'Good Night, David.
Good Night, Chet.'
My Mom used to cut chicken, chop eggs and spread mayo on the same cutting board with the same knife and no bleach, but we didn't seem to get food poisoning.
My Mom used to defrost hamburger on the counter and I used to eat it raw sometimes, too. Our school sandwiches were wrapped in wax paper in a brown paper bag, not in ice pack coolers, but I can't remember getting e.coli.
Almost all of us would Have rather gone swimming in the lake instead of a pristine pool (talk about boring), no beach closures then.
The term cell phone would have conjured up a phone in a jail cell, and a pager was the school PA system.
We all took gym, not PE... And risked permanent injury with a pair of high top Ked's (only worn in gym) instead of having cross-training athletic shoes with air cushion soles and built in light reflectors. I can't recall any injuries but they must have happened because they tell us how much safer we are now.
Flunking gym was not an option... Even for stupid kids! I guess PE must be much harder than gym.
Speaking of school, we all said prayers and sang the national anthem, and staying in detention after school caught all sorts of negative attention.
We must have had horribly damaged psyches. What an archaic health system we had then. Remember school nurses? Ours wore a hat and everything.
I thought that I was supposed to accomplish something before I was allowed to be proud of myself.
I just can't recall how bored we were without computers, Play Station, Nintendo, X-box or 270 digital TV cable stations.
Oh yeah... And where was the Benadryl and sterilization kit when I got that bee sting? I could have been killed!
We played 'king of the hill' on piles of gravel left on vacant construction sites, and when we got hurt, Mom pulled out the 48-cent bottle of mercurochrome (kids liked it better because it didn't sting like iodine did) and then we got our butt spanked.
Now it's a trip to the emergency room, followed by a 10-day dose of a $49 bottle of antibiotics, and then Mom calls the attorney to sue the contractor for leaving a horribly vicious pile of gravel where it was such a threat.
We didn't act up at the neighbor's house either; because if we did we got our butt spanked there and then we got our butt spanked again when we got home.
I recall Donny Reynolds from next door coming over and doing his tricks on the front stoop, just before he fell off.
Little did his Mom know that she could have owned our house.
Instead, she picked him up and swatted him for being such a goof. It was a neighborhood run amuck.
To top it off, not a single person I knew had ever been told that they were from a dysfunctional family.
How could we possibly have known that?
We needed to get into group therapy and anger management classes.
We were obviously so duped by so many societal ills, that we didn't even Notice that the entire country wasn't taking Prozac!
How did we ever survive?
LOVE TO ALL OF US WHO SHARED THIS ERA; AND TO ALL WHO DIDN'T, SORRY FOR WHAT YOU MISSED. I WOULDN'T TRADE IT FOR ANYTHING!
Pass this to someone and remember that life's most simple pleasures are very often the best.
THE FOLLOWING IS MY JIMMYMACKIII'S REBUTTAL to THEM GOOD OLE DAYS:
Ah yes. The Good "OLD" Days. Man they were something weren't they! Especially if you were a white Anglo Saxon Male Protestant! Let's see what those Good Old Days were like from another perspective: Those were the days of Segregation. Separate but 'Equal' and all that crap. Black drinking fountains for the 'colored folks.' White drinking fountains for the white people. Colored folks sat in the Balcony of the Pal Theater. Whites sat on the floor level and up close seats. All blacks to the back of the bus. Whites sat up front. If you were Black you had by law give your seat up to a white person. No colored people could eat in a 'whites only' restaurant. Or had to stay in a "Colored People Only Motel" while traveling. 'Colored' people had to guess how many jelly beans were in a jar in order to vote. The KKK and some non KKK communities lynched, burnt alive and killed black people with impunity. Colored folks were lucky to afford a chicken to cut up much less a board to cut it on. Leave It To Beaver was not real. Never was. Same for Ozzie and Harriet and I Love Lucy. Women were not part of the work force. Men worked. White men got the promotable jobs. Blacks did days work or general labor. There was no such thing as Birth Control. If a girl got pregnant it was her fault. If a woman was raped by her father, she was lucky if she could find someone to help her abort the fetus with a coat hanger. If she lived she was socially marked negatively. Any person suffered from the possibility of being stigmatized if they had mental health issues and ostracized. You could drive drunk. Unless you were black. Even if Black you were subjected to being stopped and frisked if driving in a white neighborhood. Married white women were expected to be pregnant and stay at home. If they were "lucky" they had a Black maid to raise their babies and clean the house. Women were secretaries, not CEO's. If you were found out to be Gay by some heterosexuals you were beat up or killed with impunity. You were dis-owned by your own family. It was A.O.K. to 'whip' (beat) your child for misbehaving. Incidents of domestic abuse were left to sort out by the wife and husband, not by the Police, even if she had a broken jaw or black eyes. How much more do you want to get a different perspective on this TOT. Them GOOD OLD DAYS were GOOD OLD DAYS for YOU, maybe. But then, you are a White Anglo Saxon Protestant devoid of perspective.

I think in some ways, there was a good old days. I do remember
a time that you didn't have to worry that once you put your child in
bed, that some nut job was going to climb into his/her bedroom window
and take them. Only rich people had to worry about kidnappings. I
remember when you could walk to the park by yourself without CPS
involvement. Heck I walked a mile to school each day and the experience
didn't traumatize me. Back then the neighborhood policed all the
children. I'd show my butt and my mother would know about it. When
children respected teachers and there was an accountability to one's
actions. Of course the good old days had its problems too. Bigotry for
someone not your ethic/religious background. It was harder from
someone of a lower economic class to move up to a higher one. Women
were thought of as wives and mothers and little else. So there are some
good thing about "the good old days" and some bad things. Just like it
is today. And in twenty years, the kids of today will be saying the
same things to their kids.

Yes UP2, Them were some good ole days for some. Especially if
you were Caucasian. I am a White boy and I experience them 'good ole
days.' Being a white college educated male over 21 I had many
opportunities afforded me. Surely you are not saying that those
privileges pertained to all ethnicities are you? I do not know you or
what race you are. But even as a white woman, even you were not privy to
ALL the opportunities afforded me. I am not saying all whites had a
happy childhood, many did not tho. And if you were a minority you
enjoyed much less of societies fruits than you or me.
My point here is to be cognizant of perspectives other than your own. Grievances of the less fortunate cannot be addressed unless they are addressed.
Lacking any semblance of perspective regarding the human condition is disingenuous at best.

Let's look at the Gold Standard for those Good Ole Days, please UP2: The 1950's.
Let's say you and I went to the same college, had the same grade point average, both white, and of equal intelligence and we both possessed equal knowledge required for say an Executive position and were interviewed for the job. Do you think you would have the advantage over me, a white male, in getting the job? (Think Mad Men here a little bit)

Uhm...did you read my post Jimmy? I basically stated that
there were some good things and bad things about the good old days and
that children today will reference these days as their good old days
when they are our age.
JimmyMackIII commented on Saturday, Jan 16, 2016 at 16:27 PM
I realize things change with time. So do)perspectives. I am not DENYING your words.
I still maintain that the 50's (Happy Days and the Fonz) were experienced exorbitantly more on a regular basis by WASPs males. Especially more than women of any race or ethnicities, blacks, Hispanics and Gays.
And yes, UP2, I knows theys bees happy cuz they aweways be singing and jumpin' the broom.

Jimmy, about 60-65% of what TOT has posted I have went through
and agree with and about 35-40% of what you have posted I went through
and agree with. However our country's rule of law "Constitution has
rectified a lot of wrong in America and it is disingenuous to continue
blaming white folk in 2016 or the sins of America's past. For Christ
sake if it weren't for a multitude of great white folk fighting for our
rights we would probably be in even more dire straits today. Good blog
we just need to get back to free market enterprise and rule of law
"Constitution" and we will be fine. We are imperfect and there will
always be obstacles to overcome, but our system is the best for
prosperity for all people, unlike most other countries.
MikeLongCounty commented on Monday, Jan 18, 2016 at 00:45 AM
Jimmy ToT is talking about the values of this time, and even
though he is older than me, I agree with him. Maybe "Leave it to
Beaver" wasn't real...but the goal to have a home like the Cleaver's was
what was desired and looked upon as what was right. What is the goal
and desire today? To do whatever you feel, whatever "you" believe to be
right. I don't care what color you are or sex...this country is in a
mess. The family is under attack and there is no common values that
unite us anymore. I'm 53 and over the last 30 years we have took a nose
dive into immorality and UN-Godliness, and over the last 5-10 years the
fall has been even faster.
Funk at one time I would have agreed with you. At one time I would have said don't interfere and work against the the free-market system and simply enforce the Constitution and we'll be OK. But unfortunately I can't say that anymore. This country needs Jesus Christ. Not Muhammad, Buddha,or anyone else. And people can say well, Mike that's your view and your belief, but others believe different. Well guess what guys, all I can say is they're wrong. At one time, I was a lot more willing to not tell people that they were wrong. But I am a lot less apt to do that today. When I was writing my opinion column on a regular basis, I had a guy tell me one time. "Well you just think you know more than anybody." He got mad, when I said, "Buddy I write an opinion column, of course I think I know more, if I didn't why would I write my opinion." As I have gotten old, I'm more inclined to say now, "I may not always do right (because I don't), but I know what right is, and that is what the Bible says." And the reality is the Bible also tells me and every one who is a Christian, not to distort it or misrepresent what it says. I can honestly and sincerely say that is one thing I try vehemently not to do. Even if Mike, would like it to say something else at times.
I am a weak, human, in the flesh. I am prideful, cold, and non-compassionate many times, and can also throw in a dash of sarcasm, just for good measure. But what I try not to be is a liar...and what I did say was try, because even in this area I can fall. But folks who believe in the Bible, and the Constitution, and in the ideals of Leave it to Beaver, and the Walton's, and even in the Charlie Brown Christmas better start having a righteous anger, because if they don't we will fall as a nation, and God will allow it.

Thanks Mike, I agree with your whole summarization of this blog
we need Jesus Christs and rule of law "Constitution" and a true leader
in the whitehouse to "Make America Great Again" or "Heal, Inspire,
Revive" this Country.

Well fellas I sure ain't going to say Jesus cannot change
lives. He changed mine. And Funk, I am not saying you, Mike, or myself
or UP2 experienced all those atrocities I noted. However, the FACT
remains that those things happened whether, any of yall reading this
personally experienced them or not.
Yes Mike, we ALL fall short, don't we. Yet we must continue to strive to achieve salvation. And all of us need to be conscious of mankind's inhumanity to man as we make that journey.
Yet it is a fact as far as I am concerned that Evil does exist in this world. And it comes in many forms. And, most importantly, we must not choose to ignore it.

I find this blog to be a prime example of the difference between liberals and conservatives.
My original blog entitled Black and White had absolutely nothing to do with race or gender.
Jimmy Darsey why did you feel the need to make a blog such as this which does nothing but stoke the fires of hatred.
Those of us on both sides of the color as well as politics need to promote unity and willingness to reunite our country.
To continue to encourage hatred is a definite way to continue our journey down the road to destruction.

Because you demented Goat, you absolutely do not realize that THEM GOOD OLE days were literal HELL for many folks.
And I will go so far as to say that MY Good Ole Days far surpassed any of your rudimentary experiences.
That is the difference between you and me. One of us has the ability to see things from different view points while the other is criminally deficient in seeing things from only ONE view.

TOT: Your boy Trump is doing more to stoke the fires of hatred
of anybody on the planet except for that Korean monkey boy, Iran's
Ayotollah and Trump's lunatic following, like you.
BTW: Carson is dead in the water. Hope you sent him campaign money. I know that would be hard for a tight wad like you, but if you did you wasted your money on Benny.

As I write this, England, is considering before its Parliament whether to give THE DONALD a visa to enter their country!!!
England you see, during the days of Winston Churchill, saw what Herr Adolph's schtick came down to as he too was petitioning for a visa. They said NO to Brother Adolph.
Right now it is hung up in British Parliament. Seems the problem as only the British can recognize is the same hate talk resonated by the Fuhrer....NATIONALISM, XENOPHOPIA, SCAPEG0ATES, VERMIN coming to the Fatherland due to a lack of Greatness by the German people.
Trump is a cultivator of hate and is on Record for ACCEPTING THAT MONIKER!
Sarah Palin, of all people, endorses the DONALD.
Go get 'em Angry White diminishing in numbers, White Bubbas and Bubbetts.
Hopefully,... soon you will be the minority that grew into a Country that put AMericans on a Massive express Elevator to HELL.

England briefly allowed some liberal voices to use their positions to express insulting comments about Trump.
The move went nowhere and passed on quickly.

This blog removes any doubt as to the question of JimmyMack's sickness.
It appears to me that his primary purpose is to race bait and promote divisiveness among the bloggers on this Coastal Courier blog site.
I am a conservative and I understand that JimmyMack and others are of differing opinions than mine.
I wish we could have honest meaningful discussions of our concerns and interest without childish name calling and insulting commentary.
However I am reminded of Dr. Carson's statement in the now famous Prayer Day speech: "When liberals have nothing meaningful to say they name call and insult".
So sad.
