Working at the boardwalk in Seaside Park, NJ during the spring and summer, wearing an 'Urban Cowboy' cowboy hat, pooka shells, cut-off shorts and colored "wife-beater" T-shirts; selling term life insurance in a garish polyester suits; engraving jewlery at a Mall in Hampton Roads, Virginia during the fall and Christmas season; driving a '72 Chevy Nova; and buying my first house (for $38,000)on a wing and a prayer with my girlfriend.

Yeah, that's about it...

The Berlin Wall didn't fall until later, either. I think this thread is supposed to read "in the '80s."

....when San Fran was normal!

Normal? SF??

The columnist Herb Caen, back then, called it "Bagdad by the Bay" - for it's plethora of delightful decadence...

Sorry,
1979 was the

"Separate from hubby/love-of-my-life, try white russians for the first time, get stoned on the front porch in the hammock while listening to Bob Marley, date major coke dealer (I DIDN'T KNOW) for a few weeks"

Year.
