Wave goodbye. Say goodbye. Remember the past. Think of all the good memories. Close your eyes and just do a little back peddling. OK, just pretend you have short term memory loss and only remember the good old days ! Yup, they are going, goingand soon will all be gone. You are completely fucked if you start thinking or remembering the Good Old Days.
Were you ever a kid ? Of course that is a stupid question. Did you ever go to the circus ? Of course that is another stupid question. Do you miss seeing the Elephants ? Of course you do. If your a New Yorker, or ever visited New York, you obviously saw or rode in a horse and buggy around Central Park.. Well, hopefully you will get to see that one day, unless of course those stupid fucking environmentalists that are claiming cruelty to horses and want to end that as well. Fuck all this crap already. Lets keep some of the good old days. How much of this can we take????
Try to get a decent pastrami sandwich in NY anymore. Even the famed Carnegie Deli is gone. I better finish this faster before something else I love is gone.
Try to go shopping in some of those wonderful department stores we grew up with. I dare you to go to Marshall Fields, Or Filenes basement, and some of the other Giants who are now gone.
How about buying a good book, or some tapes, or VCR's, or Cd's or something else like this ? Go lounge around Tower Records, or walk into Borders ? Oh wait.....they are gone as well.
So lets just go to some of the great sports stores. Herman's, Sports Authority and so on......It just doesn't end.
Howard Johnson's hotels and restaurants are familiar to all of us baby boomers. Who didn't look forward to stopping there for some food ? What about the Catskill mountains in upstate New York ? 100 % of the hundreds of hotels and bungalow colonies are completely gone. Aww....gotta watch "Dirty Dancing" again.
Things go, vanish, disappear, leave, and never ever will return. BUT.....Thank Goodness for Strip Clubs. They come, they go, they come back, and they stay. Guess we finally caught a break.
