Our local beer was national in the 1970s. Clint Eastwoods favorite!

They all were. And I was forced to watch far too many of them.

How's your Sharpie this morning? ;-)

Oh, Teddy Pendergrass. I'm going to have to dig that album up and give it a listen tonight. I loved Lou Rawls as well. Also Barry White.

Give me any of that old 70s soul over today's rap anytime.

LOL I love it!

I'm not sure I'm ready to forget just yet. You know that women have a tendency to hold grudges. '-)

Remember that song he did? I think it was "When I Need You". His voice made my hair stand on end. And that was difficult to do since I had really long hair at the time. :-)

My father wouldn't allow my sisters and I to get our hair cut so we all had hair down to our butts. When my parents separated, the first thing my Mom did was to take me to get my hair cut and get my ears pierced because my father wouldn't allow that either.

That's probably why I've never had my hair really long since then. And if I do say so myself, I look much better with short hair.
