Some of you youngsters might not have had the good fortune to have a metal lunch box..,



Well MY generation had plastic and I was VERY into Care Bears thankquevurymuch. I vaguely remember a Star Wars one my father hoped I would use. Um, NOT!

A friend here at work (total space geek) still have an old Space Shuttle lunchbox that now has several dozen astronaut autographs. Every time a crew member is available, he's there with his lunchbox.

It's way, way cool :)

There is nothing more dangerous than breaking a basic safety rule and getting away with it. It removes fear of the consequences and builds false confidence. (tbrown)

It is one of those weird memories I have from childhood (have blocked out X, but remember J? J? Really?) of a setup my elementary school had remembering the first teacher in space who died in the Challenger. I do not know why I remember it so well, but it was there at the end of the hall upon entry and I would always stop to look at it. :)

I was such a fan of little house on the prairie that I begged for a lunch box like they used. Sure enough my grandma had one in her basement. My first store bought lunch box was strawberry short cake..my 2nd was hello kitty(hand me down)and my 3rd (hand me down)...I hated it!! It was the brady bunch lunch box...

It really sucked being the youngest sometimes....

I grew up in a big Catholic Family. Went to school with kids who were in HUGE Catholic Families. I felt bad because I had baloney sandwiches in my brown paper bag, but one set of twins in my class never had anything but peanut butter, and one of the other kids in my class had ONE paper bag that she had to use over and over and over and over. Man we had some poor kids in our class. Don't think many had lunchboxes. But those that did were the "rich kids" and some of them only had 4 or 5 kids in their families, so we always thought there was something wrong with their moms.

Batman, then Johnny Quest, and the Munsters. Always with an apple butter or baloney sandwich on wonderbread. On a payday Friday I would get one of those Hostess cherry or apple pies.

When I tell my kids the stories of "Olden Times" as my son likes to say, they make fun of me. I miss the 70's, who'da thunk it!:P:ph34r:

I have a Muppets Pigs In Space lunch box that I use daily during the school year - I teach in a high school. My wife and son brought it home when he was about 2. His bed time was after the Muppets were over and we were big fans. I've been using it for 26 years now. I got rid of the thermos right away because it took up too much room.
