I seem to have gotten somewhat of a Christmas present today, at least IMO-- a couple of openings from CBS Sunday Morning as I grew up around it w/the late Charles Kuralt:

First, from Dec. 2, 1984:

Then, from Dec. 6, 1981:

Thought you'd like to see these!

What I found to be strangely nostalgic, was the watch commercial at the beginning of the first clip.

Nowadays, in the age of the smartphones everyone carries with them everywhere all the time, which have the exact time and date displayed on the home screen, who even wears watches anymore?

Nobody, that's who.

I also enjoyed Charles Kuralt.

The watch Jimbo doesn't wear anymore...

Yeah, we used wear those when we were kids.

My two best friends Fred Flintstone and Barney Rubble had identical ones.

I remember the first time we smoked weed.

I had my camera with me and took this pic...
