For some reason I thought that you were a few years older. Mainly because whenever you start one of those "remember when" threads I never recall the topic. I guess it turns out that I'm old like you, but just with a worse memory. :)I definitely remember the test patterns although I haven't seen those for well over 20 years. Really since cable and infomercials. When I was a kid and old enough to stay up late on weekends I would usually stay up late enough to see the picture of the waving flag and the words: "This now concludes our broadcasting day..." followed by the test pattern. What a bummer that always was. But then I would also get up early enough to see the end of the test pattern and the first broadcast which after some waste of religious programming would come the cartoons. And I don't know if you listen to R&B, but there's a song called Because I love you by Lenny Williams. One of the songs lyrics is "And I watched television until the television went off". Whenever I hear that I can't help but laugh. |
