Don't forget "toasted almond" as well.
And "harvest gold." I owned one of these in the natural gas version:

The month I graduated a movie called “The Man With the Golden Arm was released. I think I remember Frank Sinatra was in it. That was the first time I can remember hearing about heroin. Many of us liked the sound track so well we bought the album. Your alcohol argument is a straw man as alcohol is a LEGAL drug. If you want to continue pushing the use of illegal drugs I want nothing more to do with you.
You never heard anything about alcohol? It's a drug (caloric content notwithstanding).
Your alcohol argument is a straw man
What do you think my "alcohol argument" is? (By calling it a "legal drug" you've agreed that it is a drug.)
as alcohol is a LEGAL drug.
It is now; for the 13 years it was illegal, people used it anyway and thereby enriched criminals, just as is the case with today's illegal drugs.
If you want to continue pushing the use of illegal drugs
I have never advocated the use of any drug, including alcohol (nor tobacco).
I remember reading Pete Hamill on the death of John Lennon and he saw his body in the morgue shortly after he had been shot. He wrote there on a slab lay the 1960s. That line has stuck with me. Poignant with a lot of meaning. I was 3 to 12 years old during the 1960s and I have fond memories of it.

Ping!
It is my firm conviction that if the John Kerry-Ted Kennedy wing of the Congress had not forced our military to lose what should have been a very manageable victory in VN, the rise of islamofascism may not have been engendered, or would at the least have been slowed and quickly extinguished. We will be paying for the horrendous missteps of the Kennedys, including the 1964 immigration bill, for the rest of the century, should our nation continue to last.
Agreed. Not only does the Pill have grave medical consequences for many women, but it does not guarantee contraception any more than any other method subject to economic variations, human error and/or lying. In spite of its developer's promise of foolproof contraception, all it accomplished was to unleash not only waves of promiscuity, abortion, and an horrendous spike in treatment-resistant STDs, but also the highest level of illegitimate births in U.S. history -- with the accompanying child neglect and abuse that results from careless procreation and single "parenting." Is it any wonder there is now the mass hysteria of gender disphoria?

Yes, excellent article.
Today's obese girls couldn't fit into those mini dresses so popular in the 60s. Nobody even wants to be "twiggy" any more.
It is an excellent book, in which Bork justifiably laid blame on judicial activism long before most people realized what it is—a usurpation by the courts of the proper role of the legislatures, and the backdoor use of the courts to get around the Will of the People—and that it has been happening since FDR.
The main drivers of increased mobility were the building of the interstate highway system, initiated under Eisenhower—they built it, and millions came—and the postwar affluence that enabled families to own more than one car, including cars for teenagers.
Slouching not Sliding
The good ones are still around - just harder to find. I would start looking in the South where traditional values still flourish with many families.
Good values, yes. Obesity, no.
Plus, I'm a mother, so I'm not interested in looking for them, but in not having to look at them if they are busting their clothes at the seams.
On Saturday afternoons Mom would wash the dishes and I would dry while we listened to the Metropolitan Opera.
Same for me in 68.
I wasn’t there, I didn’t do’it:
That’s my story, and I’m stick’n to’it:
For some reason, garish kitchen colors were in vogue during that decade. It wasn't until the mid 1980s that stainless steel appliances, granite/marble counters and natural wood finish cabinets made a comeback for good.
