I actually saw VHS tapes on sale at a Walgreens not too long ago, LOL.

funnylike

I hope they were clearance priced! Lol

I saw a pay phone.

funny

Yes it even rang! I looked it up on the Internet, because I was surprised, and they have some thing called the payphone project where you can find the nearest payphone to you.

I see the Redbox kiosks every couple of months also and I didn't now people used them. I just thought the company never picked them up. I'm surprised that cable companies are still doing well without changing their business models.

So many grocery stores have redbox kiosks and they're still popular, especially in more rural areas.

I saw CDs in Target the other day and I was so shocked that they were still being sold because I don't remember the last time I was in a car that had a CD player lol

Checks. Seriously, who writes checks anymore? It's all about instant bank transfers and mobile payments these days. Checks feel slower than dial-up internet at this point.

My 5yr old son and 3 yr old daughter love watching Ryan’s World videos. My son said it will be awesome if Ryan can come to our church. I’m not sure if Ryan is a Christian. I told my son that we should pray that Ryan will get to know Jesus and he could one day come to our church. Now Ryan and his family is included in our prayer every night before going to sleep. I never thought about praying for the people that are in the videos my kids watch. Jesus can use Ryan to change world.

I realized I've been a dummy for getting a job at a creative agency and not working on my portfolio. Most of the projects I've taken on, I've done so as a way to support others without taking much credit for it. Now, a better opportunity came along and I don't have anything to show for my talent as a designer. ALWAYS take credit for what you do, even if it's not your project to begin with.
