Okay so I'll pick up where I left off:

'61 class of '79 here.

Monty Python came on the public tv station (after 10:00p.m. because the humor was considered too risque' for prime time). My friends and I absolutely LIVED for it. The next day at school we would repeat/act out every line. Great stuff.

Had several Pink Floyd albums on 8-track: "...And if the band you're in starts playing different tunes------WHIRRRRRR---WHIRRRR--CLICK--CLICK----...I'll see you on the dark side of the moon."

The other day I asked my 14 year old daughter to pick up the phone and 'dial a number' for me. She said, "What do you mean by 'dial'?"

What, ME worry? (Alfred E. Neuman's motto) Do you remember SICK magazine? CRACKED magazine?

I also remember sneaking to listen to my dad's old REDD FOXX and MOMS MABLEY records. Back then that was some very BLUE stuff that they did.

Do you remember having to turn the television on a few minutes ahead of time, to let the 'tubes warm up'?

Monty Python is great! Did you ever watch the credits on the "Holy Grail" movie? What a hoot!
