These two really go back to my dads younger years but they always made me jealous:

Deer hunting affordable to the common man
Staying in the Land cut and not seeing another boat for days

5 gallons, still have two of them at my house.

Continental Airlines before United took over
Austin being small enough that "Miller" airport was plenty big and you weren't guaranteed to stop and wait on I-35 before Town Lake any time of day
Land manatees being <1% of the total college student population

I wear nice clothes to fly, but I'll never understand why this is a big deal. Why should I care what other people wear to essentially go sit on a bus? Better yet, why should I care what other people wear… ever?

Because some of them want to think about having sex with you in an uncomfortable place.

As others have said:

Kindness and helping out your neighbors
Country being at least somewhat united
People not dressing like total slobs when they leave their house

I've never done that. Does it actually flavor the cola? Is it so you can eat the sugary peanuts afterwards? Is there something I'm missing?

Naturally aspirated car engines.
It is so easy to be wrong—and to persist in being wrong—when the costs of being wrong are paid by others.

When Americans embraced shared sacrifice in the face of a common challenge, in the days before the de facto national motto became, "Got mine. Up yours."


Sounds great. I'll start doing that when every politician leads by example.

I guess not everyone is into mid engine 670 NA Horse Power V8 cars that rev to 8600 RPM. I'd kill to drive one.

I don't know about others but it's an old road trip trick to get a snack and a drink at the same time. The salt of the peanuts kills the carbonation in the soda which makes it easier to drink. It's the only way I eat peanuts, actually.
