I can take u down the Kid Rock discography If u decide ur into his music🥰 Back then or life now? Without hesitation BACK THEN!!💯 Ima show my age cause I ain’t ashamed, I’m blessed to b alive! I grew up n a time when we left our keys n the ignition, vehicles unlocked, house unlocked, could safely ride my bicycle 7 miles into town and walk around town safely all day. We had safety, security and freedom! No, nothing was ever stolen, damaged, burglarized and ima lil female but felt no fear cause ppl were kind and caring. NOTHING like today. I lived without cable, cell phone, internet, fancy technology and would not trade my childhood for anything. We thought we were big time when 8 track tapes came out💯😂😂

Believe it or not, it was nothing at all to go a whole month without using a phone or television. Out where we were, it was all CB radio or nothing for communications. For $20, you could fill up your car, buy a carton of smokes, a 12 pack of beer and large pizza. I don't recall ever looking at a clock and didn't even care to find one. lol Of Course this was circa 1977, The absolute historical peak of good times in America.

When there was no internet you interacted with the people around you instead of always looking at a phone..... Also, it was better to not have a phone always available for those times you might get home a little (or a lot) late - not having a phone to call and all.... You know, sometimes it is better to ask forgiveness after than permission before doing something.
