[Monkey Face]

Those of us who were still coherently functioning found pleasure in small things that “seemed” normal. In some instances, music did that.

The Beatles outgrew themselves, and so split up. I prefer to think that the smart ones (musicians) quit smoking pot and did something good with their lives. Some did, and are still around. Sir Paul made us all proud!

But some were/are die-hards, and can’t drag themselves out of the anti-culture culture. They’re the ones that the stoners keep voting into office....

I decided it wasn't worth it and walked off in my own directions, to my own drummer (or should I say piper?), to wit:
Became a techie long before geek was hip
Replaced rock with: Classical, Indian (mixed on this but kept it after they dumped it), Middle East (kept folk, though, and added Celtic)
Gave up all "news" magazines (a decade before I discovered National Review)
Took up bagpipes (an instrument of WAR, don'cha know?)
Played around with CB (definitely trucker and right-orientation, 10-4?)
Got a job (for a time) at NASA

Oh. And remained a faithful church-goer. (Good thing, or I'd never have met LoM.)
