Thank you! I look forward to part II of both articles. Had they been official entries they would have been prize winners!

Thank you all and congratulations to @natepowers whose article was at least as good as mine. Welcome back to a superb researcher and writer.

Pat Woods is indeed a great asset! He's also involved in the free speech movement now. I recommend joining us at:

It did indeed, I enjoyed the hell out of the late 60s (early-mid I was in Vietnam) especially being the "Acid King" of Boston. There were many McCartneys for sure, we have one buried here in

Thanks, I may send some of my articles. I don't think this would work, it's part of a book that I intend to publish. I'm not going to turn the rights over to someone else.

Hey old friend, long time no see! Say hi to Mom and I hope you are well.

Happy Caturday to Richy and big hugs to you all. I love the last photo, he looks like he's yelling!

I feel like I'm in good company, all of my friends made the list!

I'm a big fan of Spoonerisms... I wrote an article about him a couple of years ago

Thanks guys!

Thank you, I'll return the favor

Good article! I just did a similar one from a somewhat different perspective. Funny, when I saw that picture of Ike -- I shook hands with him when he was still Gen. Eisenhower (I was 4).

I read a couple of days ago that Elon Musk is getting into Doge along with some other whales.

I love composting! I had a prof in college whose hobby was composting. His neighbors donated all of their leaves and I would swing by on Saturdays to help turn his piles. To him it was an art and he taught

A very Happy Birthday my dear friend, you're still a kid to me! I'm three-quarters of a century (you're right, it does sound better than 75). Big hugs from Bruno, Monna, Slick (my new squirrel) and me!!!
