Brings back memories, Old Joe. This was the fad when I was a youngster
in the late 40s & early 50s. We did it using a half-dollar ("four-bits") and
a kitchen tablespoon. Us guys used to get together & do it.
Fifty cents was a significant expenditure, back then, you could take
a girl to the movies (a cartoon, the weekly serial, the news, and the
feature film) buy popcorn and still have change left over.
Now-a-days the kids tip over grave-stones, steal cars, impregnate the
girl next-store and act-up at the malls.
