Using a church key?

Yes and the door latch on certain cars.

When it took a pretty strong grip to crush a beer can?

Running from shady spot to shady spot in the street because that hot tar was soft and sticky for bare feet.

Roller skates that fit on your shoes?

Bicycles that had only one gear.

I remember all of them.

Party line

Fury. Sky King.

I remember them all too.
No feeling like the "worms in my feet" feeling of skating asphalt streets with clamp on skates. And heaven forbid you lose the skate key.
And the irritating woman who shared our phone. Seems she spent her life on the phone.

Crank phones! I went to a private school my senior year. They still had crank phones! '62-'63.

My grandmother had one.
I'll also admit to going fishing with an old one. There may be a few who know what I'm referring to.

Nope. Never did in public lakes, ponds, rivers either. Didn't say it was right, just admitted to sinning.

Some one posted Push Ups on Facebook the other day. The ice cream in what looked like a toilet paper tube with a stick. Loved those things. Also loved the original Popsicles.

Monkey blood.

Can't remember the name- the straws that had flavoring in them. I remember chocolate and strawberry.

Yep- I think it was Merthiolate.
