Quote of the day

 

From Larry Lambert at Virtual Mirage:


"It was more fun being 20 in the 70s than it is being 70 in the 20s."


How many of us can wholeheartedly agree with that?


*Sigh*

I can vouch for that.

I was 20 in the '80's. I'll be 80 in the '40's.

At 78 yo, I can verify that!

A different kind of fun, but better, maybe? I am happy to be at an age (74) where perspectives have changed -- almost all for the better thank you.

As a decrepit 75 year old, I agree. I probably shouldn't complain since, except for one, all my childhood friends have crossed over already.

If you remember the 60's, then you don't remember the 60's. In my case, I don't remember the 60's, and the 70's are a bit hazy.

Ohhhh, yes. I'm 79 and my warranty ran out long ago. Lots of replacement or just plain ol' removed parts -- and they ain't NAPA.

I was a teenager in the 70's.

I was 15 when the '70s ended, but I wholeheartedly agree!

It was more fun being 20 in the 70's than it is being 20 in the 20's too. Several orders of magnitude so. Demographics alone make that obvious.
