What was the Richard Pryor line about how his father died? That he "came and went at the same time"?
It sure beats a car accident........
It sure beats a car accident........Junebug skipping like a stone
With the headlights pointed at the dawn
We were sure we'd never see an end
To it all

Thanks Ripple![]()



That wasn't my intention, I'm sorry -- I post how I feel, good or bad, I'll try not to post the latter anymore.....![]()

Thanks, CJ, LR, Rip, Jazz, and Lox. I'm old, old, old, old, old, old. . .

I was hoping you packed a pair of 45s......![]()
I think two women would about kill me but if I have to go, that's my preference....![]()
OK, once again all weepy, watching the video of 1979 and thinking how that was me 33 years ago -- does that video hit too close to home for some of you, also?
...
Now I see it all too clearly......

One 33 is a lot better than two 45's. Long-play all the way, baby!
Wait. 45's may be speedy, but they still have two sides each--that would be four...
You're not talking about records, are you?



Not for me. In 1979, Gore hadn't invented the internet yet--heck, the military hadn't even split off from Arpanet yet--so I was in my room reading physical books or watching Monty Python and Dr Who on PBS. Songs about how great it is to have friends when you're a kid are just as fictional to me as movies.
I do try to sympathize with people who have something to feel nostalgic about, though![]()

Ha. Watching some 35 year old wax nostalgic about high school makes you feel old? Tell me where you were when this first hit the radio:
HA! Now you feel old.
And VT can feel young again![]()
