Are you old enough .......

As the title says, are you old enough to remember the connection between these two objects ...

For me it's a yes. :(

did you break the rewind button on your cassette player?? :lol:

I won't even bother looking for pictures......How about an 8 Track tape and a Phillips Screwdriver?

Hint...the screwdriver has to do with sound. :P

I never had an eight track, but my mate did, and for a while it was the bees knees. Just a short while though.

Dunno about the Phillips, and I won't google as that would spoil the mystery.

That used to be a trick with 8-Tracks that they would constantly do....another hint.

Believe it or not, I still have a new car radio which has an 8-Track player. It is sealed up in a box from when my car was new. I replaced the 8-track with a cassette.

My dad still owns a old 4 track Stellaphone although the buttons are a bit flakey now.

You'd be old if you still remember LED calculators and mobile phones with massive SIM cards :lol:

LED calculators? I still remember having to wind my watch up, and then these things appeared on the market, cutting edge technology.

LED Watches:

Still dunno about the eight track, but I'm working on it. Without google.

I remember the cassett, rewinding it manually.

8 track players - worst part was the middle when it switched over and the song would be interrupted by CLICK. It was always at the best part of the song too.

Somewhere in my house is an old school cell phone, roughtly the size of a small minivan.

OH GAWD!!! That looks like my HS calculator (which didn't do calculus that well) that I still have collecting dust. :(

Getting warm...I thought you had it for the screwdriver. ;)

All I can think of with a screwdriver is adjusting the belt in them, but I don't have enough experience with them to say for sure. I haven't even seen one in abuot 10 years :lol:
