I REMEMBER THE 70S CUZ I WAS THEREsw

A lot of that's kind of 60's, maybe you skipped the 70s? My draft lottery number was 362, about the only lottery I every won. I'd heard of "red" and "gold" but all we had was "Mexican" and rarely "sens". We ate little paper squares that sometimes had red markings, sometimes not. I was the designated driver because whatever we were doing I could stay on the road and avoid oncoming traffic. Once someone ran a line of opiated hash oil down a joint and that made me feel so good I swore I would never try opium again. (and haven't.) What a beautiful, happy, sun-shiny day that was. Luckily that was a walk-to visit. Although I didn't, I definitely suggest that you don't do opium and drive. I closed out the 70's with the Who in Buffalo at the concert after the Cleveland sadness.
 
Though many used those "postal scales" (I did too for a short time) I had triple beams, and the bags were 1.25 Oz.
 
First car was a 65 Plymouth fury II, 361 cid 55 in first 115 in second and the speedo did not go far enuf for 3rd. I floated the valves almost every time I took off in it before shifting to the next gear. Ya I got a few tickets (when they could catch me), and I ran open exhaust. I would go to small towns, run up and down the street in front of the local PD until they would come out and chase me. (I may have been a bad boy) If/when they crashed out I would stop and make sure they got out of their squad car.
I remember saying "if gas goes over 49 cents a gallon, I'll never buy another drop" I do hate eating my words, but you cannot go without fuel. I did for a while run the drips, some of you may know what drip gas is, just know that it may have a lot of water with it.
3.2 beer, we killed that just a few years ago, but it was here in the 70's, drink a case go pee and drink another case. No wonder we turned to weed!
 
Hey, I'm not a boy-o. It WAS a labor of love, and it took a long time to put together!!! I thought you'd laugh, but I guess I was wrong about your temperment.
 
Oh, no. I had a good tittle and I can tell you put a lot of time and effort into your presentation. Good for you!!! Keep it up. Keeps the old mind young.
 
The Stadium was a good place to watch musical talent. Been to so many older venues up there. I honestly enjoyed going to Park West the most, saw more people perform there in Chicago than anywhere else. I saw George Carlin there. Two drink minimum, heh, we smuggled in a lot. Parked free in hotel garages - the good old days. Then we drank and ate afterwards on Rush Street, before the area was called Viagra Triangle.
 
alltatup It didn't work, amber mist colored Impala. After a decimating derecho in 2010 my car which was sitting in the driveway was totally untouched. Six months later an uninsured special ed teacher in town hit me. Ended up losing my thyroid, the surgeon took out a para without my knowledge, now I'm hypopara, the Only gland in the human body without a replacement hormone. My QOL took a big dump. Since having rhabdomyolysis in October I'm on the couch more than anywhere. Too bad I don't have anything to trim, LoL.
 
Started going to concerts after McCormick Place burnt down. They had concerts at the Civic Opera House. It was great. Saw James Gang, Alice Cooper and Journey
