You know you’re of a certain age when “There’s something happening here... “ makes you immediately think of only one thing...”What it is ain’t exactly clear.”

Heh...so true. We do date ourselves with such song references.

I think I was 14 when that tune was in the Top 40. Buffalo Springfield did that one, didn't they?

I remember John Unitas playing for the Baltimore Colts.
I remember when there were two football leagues, the National League and the American League.

I remember the Raiders AL Davis getting Pro Bowl caliber players from other teams because the player refused to wear a tie and jacket for a 2am flight.

I remember when if it wasn’t broken, we didn’t fix it.

I remember when character counted and a person’s word was as binding as any legal document.

I even remember when a dollar was worth 90 cents.

I know, I am showing my age.

To paraphrase the movie Patton, “the world grew up into a hell of a place. God I hate the 21st century”.

Yep. And if you were an LA local you knew Stephen Stills wrote it about the Sunset Strip curfew riots.
