"Man had not invented: pantyhose" And it surely must have been a man who invented them ... Guess he wasn't much into garter belts, huh? Something else we didn't have were 'flip-flops' ... And I remember the first Dairy Queen ... Who would've thought it ... soft ice cream!
We've seen a lot, haven't we ... and not all of it actually good?
Astounded me at the end ... the man's age!

And what year did the King's mansion in Hawaii have air conditioning? A year or two before the White House had A/C.
I think grandpa a bit older than 59. Ice cream cones debuted in 1904 and penicilian goes back further than '51.

pantyhose were around during World War II, just scarce. And yes, it had to be a man who invented those.

Wasn't the original Coke offered with or without cocaine?
