You're dating yourself! It was great when you could turn on the radio and hear normal music.

Apropos, the Mona Lisa story, back in 1991 some weirdo attacked Michelangelo's statue of David with a hammer, smashing chunks off of it. What madness would drive someone to attack works of art?

There are a few small minds here a FR that wouldn’t protest at seeing works of art destroyed. Sad.

I think you have in mind the attack on the Pieta in St. Peter’s basilica. Apparently it was repaired so that the damage is not visible (but now tourists can’t get close to the statue). I never heard that the statue of David was attacked.
