There are times I wish they’d just ban everything- baccy and beer, burgers and bangers, and all the rest- once and for all. Instead, they creep forward one apparently tiny step at a time. It’s like being executed with a bacon slicer.
“Politics is the art of looking for trouble, finding it whether it exists or not, diagnosing it incorrectly, and applying the wrong remedy.”
To learn who rules over you, simply find out who you are not allowed to criticise.

INEZ: Prove it. Prove it was no dream. It's what one does, and nothing else, that shows the stuff one's made of.
GARCIN: I died too soon. I wasn't allowed time to - to do my deeds.
INEZ: One always dies too soon - or too late. And yet one's whole life is complete at that moment, with a line drawn neatly under it, ready for the summing up. You are - your life, and nothing else.

Well Im not that old but color TV sure was neat when it came alongBelieve it or not theyd nake a big deal about if a show was in color. A big announcment before the show. This show is beingbrough to you in living color. Never mind surround sound or HD. You were lucky you got 5 channels. Strange though seemed likethere were a lot more things to watch.

Re: #1 when you were born?
I think the coolest thing I saw was when my family got our first microwave. That was awesome. I also remember when MTV first came on. "Video Killed the Radeo Star"!!! Remember that all you late and 30 yr olds? Gawain, just to let you know, I consider you a very blessed man to have had your childhood when you did. You have seen so many amazing changes within our country and our world. I know that every generation has some cool #### happen in it, but i can't help but dream about living in the 50's and early 60's.
