I shall be 51 on the 9th. You don't have to send presents, cash will do.

1-What were the 50's-60's like? Ike, Kennedy, cold war, cuban missile crisis, marilyn monroe,the films..(hitchcock..!!), ritchie valens/the big bopper, nixon, etc...

Mostly a good time to be a kid. Most moms in our neighborhood were SAHM moms and we played outside all summer. Most of the things you ask about here weren't on my radar. I was totally unaware of the cuban missile crisis at the time. I did think JFK was handsome and I liked that he had little kids.

2-What did you think of elvis, the beatles, mamas & the papas, the beach boys-Which beatle was your fave? Did you get to watch them on the ed sullivan show???

Meet the Beatles was my first album. I still have it. I used to play it over and over. I loved Paul. My best friend loved John. Yes, I first saw them on Sullivan and we discussed them in great detail the next day on the playground.

3-Do i dare ask about the 70's...? Eh. I went to a disco once. Had a floor just like in Saturday Night Fever. But I really can't dance.
