Happy Grandparent's Day and the power of imagination Charles Kuralt

 When I was a little boy

I used to borrow 

my father's hat

and make a press card 

to stick

in the hat band.

That was the way reporters

were always portrayed 

in the movies.

VCR DAY! (back when, we thought we were so modern) ... Alice Cooper

and they'd be gone.
