The Side Effects of Endorphins

Certainly, there are a lot of things that we miss. But I would beg to differ as what we miss the most is viewing these items through our unspoiled innocent view of the world.. I could list 1 million things here but I can’t count that high , without getting distracted , high

so I’ll keep it brief.

Vanilla Twin-sickles

The ice cream man had a wide variety of ice cream. Somedays you get the Chocho and another day, a Nutty Butty and rarely an orange Creamsicle. But when the ice cream man had vanilla twin sickles, they were damn good. There was a fine art to splitting them into two, so you could eat them properly. The cool thing about vanilla twin sickles were they had no real color so they don’t spoil your clothing on a hot, not that I cared about that stuff back then.

Are there better ice creams on the market these days?

Certainly, but there’s so many considerations to buying an ice cream bar. I don’t need the calories., I don’t like that company and so on.

Pay Phones

I remember walking down the street in Fenwick Island, Delaware late at night to call our grandmother. It is when the rates went down. I was out even tall enough to read the graffiti on the shelf.

Are pay phones better than any communication we have now., certainly not. But I certainly miss walking down to the payphone to call my grandmother. It’s pretty easy to read between the lines here.

Red Beet Eggs

This Pennsylvania delicacy still exist. They are simply hard-boiled eggs. Let them soak in a mixture of red beet juice, sugar and vinegar.. They might be one of the most delicious things I ever have devoured. I’ve been vegan for a long time so I haven’t had one in probably 20 years.. Do they still taste delicious. Probably..

WRAW

There was a radio station in Reading Pennsylvania. When we were kids that was the soundtrack of our life. Yes Brandy was a fine girl, and we had joy we had fun we had seasons in the sun and it’s late September must be getting back to school. I have an entire playlist I called DeltA Avenue. The theme of the playlist is songs I heard the backseat of my parents car.

Here’s a song that played often about the poor guy, missing his girl and missing the good old days.

Delta Avenue

Is the answer to question number four when you try to break into my bank account. It is the street I grew up on.  Do I miss it , not really, but but there are memories on that street that I like to revisit once in a while.
