In grade school, if we brought in change for the donation, we'd get a pin to wear proudly the rest of the day.

Correct me if I’m wrong . . .
‘56 Thunderbird and ‘56 Olds Rocket 88. (Might be ‘55’s. I’m slipping in my old age. When I was a kid I could have not only identified the year I could quote option packages)
The bodys were the same.
The Rocket V8 was 324 cubic inches, with a two-barrel, 170 horsepower engine.
The Super 88s came had a 4 barrel and made 185 horsepower.

And a '55 Olds
'56 olds had the back up lights in the red taillight assy.
I owned a '56 Pontiac which shared the same body parts except for the front clip and taillight Assy's.
I also owned a '57 Thunderbird 312 V/8 which had the fins. It would do 150 MPH if you believed the speedometer. Scary at that top speed. Everything in the car shakes.

The Frito Bandito pencil topper.
They came inside bags of Fritos corn chips.
Thought to be an eraser by many kids, but it wasn't.
Me; 4th grade.. Sister Mary Annunciata.
She walks over, grabs my no.2 pencil, takes it off, drops it in her desk drawer, slams it shut.
Thus the end of my relationship with the Bandito.

3 hours..
I remember that, but I went to parochial school (Catholic). Boys had to wear dress shirts and ties, girls had the kewl catholic school girl skirts they had to wear.
No more than 1 inch or 2 inches above the knee (I forget which), still they sure looked cute.

My year younger sister was caught in that trap. Girls had to wear dresses, even at recess, and since they couldn't show panties, could not use the bars or engage in most activities. Including playing jacks if it involved swuatting or kneeing.
A compromise was finally reached by allowing shorts under dresses, but the skirts stayed on and the shorts came off before class time.

Loved this!
Some of them are a little lower in sound like Zsa Zsa and the car one.
Everything from Rod Serling and a '71 LTD to Don Meredith and Lipton iced tea.
