Baby Boomers (Classic)

[bigjohn51]

Great concept for a board. Going to add it to my favorites.

I loved growing up during the 50's and 60's. I still listen to Hank Williams Sr., the Platters, Elvis, the Temptations, the Doors, etc. And I remember Ed Sullivan, I Love Lucy, Gunsmoke, Dobie Gillis, and Romper Room.

I remember Ike, JFK, LBJ, Tricky Dick, the Cuban missile crisis, Kent State, the Hippie movement, and Viet Nam. Anybody recall those school drills where we hid under our desks to prepare for a nuclear attack? I had an Uncle who actually built a bomb shelter.

Ah, the good old days. No drive by shootings, no carjackings, no high speed chases. Gas was .20 cents a gallon and a candy bar cost a nickel.

Everything seemed so much simpler way back when. Change is inevitable but it's not always bad. I enjoy the senior discount at Denny's and other perks.

Been fun posting here. See ya later alligators and keep on truckin.
