I remember the good old days when adults were trying to get Looney Tunes off the air because they said there was too much violence in the cartoons. Now we have live action programs for kids that make the cartoon violence of those times look tame by comparison. I also remember when they made the 2nd TMNT movie and they toned down the actual violence because kids were getting hurt trying to imitate their hero's on the half shell. And I remember when there were movies coming out in theaters that actually had a G rating. I can't remember when the last one was though. Most seem to be at least PG now. I remember the mechanical horse outside Ben Franklin's that gave kids a 5 minute ride for a penny. Haven't seen one of those in quite a while. And there were arcade games like pac man that only cost a quarter to play. Do arcade games even still exist today? As late as the early 90's (when I was in college) that same quarter would buy you a postage stamp.
