Tell us your age with a picture

[Fireball]

I checked IMDB and am pretty sure our first color TV was in 1964 from the first show I remember watching in color.   Still, color TV had been around for awhile.  I recall a local TV station making a 'big deal' out of advertising in the mid 60s time frame that they were going to be broadcasting over 70 hours (!!) of color programing in the upcoming week.

Hmm. When we watched that NBC peacock "in living color", us kids in our family were always disappointed when it remained black and white. We had no idea!

True story- when I was really young, about 8 or 9, my brother, (who was 1 year younger than I), and I were out hiking in the mountains our house faced. We reached a plateau, and discovered a TV antenna there, on public property (we knew dick about that, at the time). I boosted my younger brother up and he removed a capacitor from that antenna. Obviously I know what that was, then! By the time us two youthful miscreants got home, the guy who owned that antenna was at our our house railing at my dad about the destruction. Since it was on public property, the guy had no leg to stand on. He bitched at us about "how many people had missed the football game", but we both knew dick about football. Our life was more about "Heckyl and Jeckyl" cartoons. We were such shits in that little town! Though we didn't know it at the time...we were pretty tame stuff. There were people in the same town who knifed and shot each other. We weren't in that group.
