50's make me think of huge cars in light blue, and pink, with big big wings on the back

Thu. 4/16/09 2:41am From: evan

highways were built during the 50s

Thu. 4/16/09 2:43am From: brycepunk

The 50's also had the start of the idea that science would solve everything, from formula being better than breast milk to plastics being a perfect material, endless free nuclear energy and the final victory over nature.

Thu. 4/16/09 2:53am From: Joshua K

Converse are owned by nike now, so you can support bad labor practice

Thu. 4/16/09 2:54am From: Dave Foss

Thalidomide was the drug that caused flipper children

Thu. 4/16/09 2:55am From: brycepunk

The suburbs were a product of the post-war economic boom, among other things. Cheap gas played a part as well. The pre-designed suburban development existed for many years, but took off in the early 50's.

3D Movies were a 50s fad i beleive

Thu. 4/16/09 3:04am From: Lighips

Why is it worse to intern (and abuse) Japanese-Americans than it is to imprison (and probably torture) non-Americans?

Is it a greater crime to deprive an American of freedom? Are other people in the world "less free"?

Oh, to answer an earlier question, the word for an American who doesn't care about the rest of the world is not "Ameri-centric", it's "American"...

Thu. 4/16/09 3:08am From: Joshua K

Some shows to remember

Thu. 4/16/09 4:12am From: Nick the Bard

Looks like the Munsters was filmed in black and white, and got canceled because Batman was in color.

Thu. 4/16/09 4:18am From: Nick the Bard

Gah, Star Trek started in the sixties.

Thu. 4/16/09 4:23am From: Nick the Bard

That kid is up way past his bedtime.

Thu. 4/16/09 5:04am From: Dave in London

Sounds like Joey needs to get laid. He's just a kid that has ragging hormones that does not know what he is saying due to sleep depravation. Also, Star Trek was first produced by "I Love Lucy" Lucy Ball.
