A few years back, I bought a Casio G Shock and hated it almost immediately. It would do everything except consistently give the time. I used to joke that it took 3 hands and an engineering degree to change functions. My current watch is a self winding Timex Expedition that does nothing but keep time.

Hmm, don’t think anyone ever put a brownie on a tripod. Pretty sure my brownie didn’t have have the tripod mount on the bottom. Was indeed a nice little simple camera, pictures nowhere near as good as a 35mm reflex, but not bad.

Spock was awesome.

I liked the way women dressed in the 50s. They looked very sexy.

Did your parents or grand-parents remember driving a classic car to get a burger at a drive-in diner? Go on a date to see a movie at a drive-in theater? Or dance at a sock hop? The 1950s American Dream We STILL Love! ruclips.net/video/H_nMZjEli84/видео.html

Super video ! Subscribed.

I've never heard of over half of these stores.

I remember the Incredible Universe in Garland/Dallas It became that Fry's with the cows. Now they are both gone.

The founder of Toys R Us had died in 2018 when they bankrupt. A private equity firm put Toys R Us in too much debt that they could not overcome

The Tandy TRS-80 color computer shown at 1:11 was my first computer

Toys R Us is still around in Canada

10:01 this is an 8 mm movie camera! 🙄

tower records! A great place to hang and find new music.

Did you used to shop at these stores? Did you work in retail? Did you work at any of these? Things Rich Families Had in the 90s…That You Wanted! ruclips.net/video/1KhnyprpH-8/видео.html

I pine for the days of vcrs. The number of times I have to reset my phone and TV to cast streaming services drives me round the bend. 10 minutes of stuffing around to watch a movie. I used to enjoy the trips to the video library. And there was no stuffing around when you wanted to record something at short notice. I swear it took less time to turn on the tv and put in a cassette than it does now to boot stuff up via menus.

My first time was in 72 right before turning 22. Got carded for the first time. Stayed at the Westward Ho many times and even got room comped. Could walk anywhere and made the mistake of walking from the Ho to downtown on a 100 degree day. Took a taxi back. Been there 41 times and last was in 2019 and could be the last.

My parents had a Brownie camera.

Bold lamps wasn't knew to the 1950s they had them in the 1930s.

"Not only was the G-Shock rugged, Geico's cave men were thrilled to have a watch of their own!"

"AS TIME MOVES ALONG SOME OF US GO WITH IT" before internet, myspace, or chatrooms were incorporated across the many of today's tech milestones, we had the b.b.s. (bulletins) and sent a varied set of messages, internal commands & programs.. the b.b.s. did the job, was full of bugs, and had no real security - it also possessed no transit decoders nor would different protocols translate, at all.. but, the means were competent and resources used much less space to function - the automated parts of modern c-class cut reps & though an average script is relatively short, the backwall of a program comes with an avalanche of necessities (and bloat).. so, the newer tech requires an applicable need for the exponentially high amount of capacity, where 32k was once considered larger than any program would need to run, individually - they would take a long time for batches to meet updates, but, instead of mail worms we had grid bugs.. when mega-ram turned into giga-ram, then tens & hundreds of gigabyte drives, on to terabytes, the micronization of components allowed for tiny circuits, alloys & accellerated the processor to expand potential use.. the internet's design is really an extreme version of the original b.b.s. put to some tests to transcend through many broken boundaries, of its own...

stayed at El Rancho, worst bed I was ever in

My dad's brother (my Uncle) lived across the driveway from us. Was the first to purchase a color TV with remote control in the late 1950's. My sisters and I used to watch with ENVY from our living room window when he turned it on in his living room. We had an old B&W RCA for at least 10 years till it finally gave up the ghost. For me as a child, it was an eternity.

Great videos y so little followers 🤷‍♂️😎

nobody likes pepsi

the palm pilot is basically what we all have now , a mobile smartphone with a touch screen , it was and still is awsome

the g shock is timeless

I am the Blue Gringo. I’ve answers to some of your questions.

I saw a Ricky Ricardo show at the El Rancho. I was the only person in attendance.

Altair is the name of a real star - star trek didn't make it up.

One of the Brownie models shown is a movie camera, not a still camera, as is being discussed in the narrative. ~

My mom's famous words...I come alive in Vegas! 2004

I have a color photo of my mom and dad on those camels at the Sahara 6:03

Only thing I like about Vegas is the building s old or new I design of them they are neat to look at

The Golden Gate was there downtown from 1906

I knew it in 1972 but still I miss this version. I was saying to a friend today that the hotels from the front deck/concierges/ bellmen/ taxi driver...it did not matter every one could not have been nicer to you. Having spent most of the my years in 3 different shows I learned a great deal about the inside of the town in the 70's. Luckily, I left with only good memories.

Worked for several years as a showgirl at the Riviera Hotel during the late 80s. Got to become friends with Liza, Leslie Gore ,Pia Zadore and a few other headliners. So cool.. There was a real sense of community among the entertainers at that time . Jubilee at Ballys, Lido @ Stardust, Follies at the Tropicana. Mirage was just getting ready to open featuring Sigfried and Roy. The Silver Slipper......Glamour and glitzy good times ✨️💃✨️

Shame these are US dominated. We in the UK had the Sinclair C5 as one of our biggest failures. Powered by either pedals or a small battery, the tricycle that was meant to go on roads, but was too small & frightening to try out for fear of getting run over! Check out its history here: ruclips.net/video/lL_0QGvPz7M/видео.html

I live in Vegas. There is no respect for history. There is no sense of roots. The whole city looks about as permanent as a soap bubble.

I still want a laserdisc player but one from 90s. I see a lot of disc's at yard sales and thrift store

A really bad history lesson

Left out the link

Try doing some homework. You're conflating two completely different El Rancho properties.

Nice video! Thank you. I hope you don'r mind a correction... El Rancho burned down, yes, but the El Rancho was on the West side of LVBD where the Hilton Timeshare and Festival Grounds is. The newer El Rancho which you showed a photo of the newer sign is the former location of the Thunderbird and Silverbird, now the lot the Fountaine Bleu is on. Additionally, the Dunes Sultan did not survive until the end. It was only on the stip from 1955 to 1964, the Sultan was then relocated to the golf course and was on I-15. It caught fire late 1980s.

NES and SNES pronounced as how? "Ess En EE Ess" and "En Ee Ess"? Coming from someone who remembers those things at the time they were out we used to pronounce them as acronyms such as "Nez" and "Snez"!

Nice Vid! I've been staying in Vegas every year since 1970!🙂

Never saw the El Rancho. The Frontier Hotel got to go to. It was nice. Played at the Flamingo Hilton Hotel. The Dessert Inn was a very nice hotel. The Sahara Hotel was somewhat out of the way. Played in the casino here and ate at the restaurant. The Rivera had a good casino. The Royal Nevada closed by the time I got there. The Dunes Hotel had a nice casino. Got sick after eating there once. Never got to go to the Hacienda. My wife liked the Tropicana Hotel. The Stardust was a very nice hotel. My first contact with The Boyd Group. The Golden Nugget is considered the best hotel downtown.

How can you forget Commodore 64 with the Guinness Book of Sales Records? 🤦🤦
