    Dilly Bars were sold at Dairy Queen.  They were a splat of soft serve ice cream with a stick in it, dipped in a flavored stuff that created a shell and then frozen.  Haven't seen 'em for years and years.

    False..I've been to D.C., but have no recollection of the FDR memorial. I did however see the Vietnam War Memorial, Lincoln Memorial, the White House and a few other memorials.

    The next person has never had to use a pair of pliers to change the channel on a television set.

    Not sure if true or false: I remember transistor radios, not necessarily the first ones



    The next person will sleep in later today than they usually do during the week



    Notes: I haven't been to a Dairy Queen in ages. That was our tradition to go Fridays after school when I drove DD to and from school, it was only a bit out of way. Pretty sure they had Dilly Bars then. Tradition ended when she started driving herself to high school

    My uncle got polio when he was young. Was in an iron lung for quite a while
