Yeah, like back in the mid-late 50's we would take our bikes (usually one riding on the handle bars or on back carrier if there was one) out on the dusty country roads around a dinky little Illinois town...Cameron, Il. We would pick up pop bottles in the ditch that people threw out of their cars. Back then they would fetch 3 cents a bottle at the local Billiards Hall, it also servred as the town's Tobacco and Candy Store and showed free movies on the outside of the building during the summer. If we were lucky enough we would earn as much to buy a cold NeHi, either stawberry (red pop) Orange or Creme Soda. NeHi ruled. To us kids anyway. sc
