To stay legal, I say nothing about current affairs, this is only about history.
Many people long for the good old days. On this day fifty years ago some things were good. The movies were great, the music even better. Ciggies were very cheap and you could still get strong legal amyl nitrite. Unfortunately the cold war was making everyone paranoid, even though the public at the time never knew just how terrifyingly close we came to turning the cold war into the hot war. It didnt happen, otherwise none of us would now be around to worry about it.
So in a way those were the good old days because the people back then somehow kept their cool . I am grateful to everyone who helped keep the world in one piece so that I could have a life, as hard as that might be.
