I stood in wide-eyed amazement thinking my older cousins and babysitters had lost their minds.

I was to young at the time, but looking back.... me to.

Well, I lived it, and I don't want to go back. I graduated from high school in 1966. The years prior to my graduation were happy years...sort of like Animal House times. The years AFTER my graduation (1967-1970) were nothing but anger and fear.

I was an Air Force wife in those years...my son was born in 1968. Constant complaining, unhappiness, anger, rage, paranoia...no thanks! I have NO fond memories of those years, and that was when I became disenchanted with the media.

If you want to get a good idea of the 60's (and the early 70's), rent Forrest Gump. It was not a time that anyone should recall with fondness.
