See, I remember the 1970's. Things were INSANE. There was a gas shortage. A malaise descended over America. The President was attacked by a BUNNY. Silver suddenly went up 20 times in price.
See, I remember the 1980's. Things were INSANE! This weird Punk movement started, with people piercing and mohawks everywhere. A flight with a US CONGRESSMAN was downed by the Soviets. A space shuttle plumb BLEW UP almost on the launchpad!
See, I remember the 1990's. Things were INSANE! This crazy INTERNET thing started. Presidents were getting head in the oval office. There were condoms on the White House Christmas tree. North Korea had nukes all of a sudden.
Same old same old, bro. Things are always crazy.
I was reading newspapers from the late 1800’s not long ago. All of this plus Americans being beheaded by indians, kids killed in farm accidents and general murder and mayhem. In rural America.
A dose of perspective can go a long way in times like these.
If you want to worry, start working to draw paralells between now and pre-WWI and pre-WWII conditions. It’s a powderkeg out there.
You forgot *disco* in the 70s; otherwise it’s a pretty complete list, Laz. I still miss seeing you in those polyester suits/ties and platform shoes!
