Last week my brain wandered that direction and I realized as old as the 60's seemed to be in the late 80's (when I was in high school), that's how old the 80's are now. I'm not ready to examine the 90's. I may never be.Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13306754150860679811noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4930778534030920874.post-52684565970250100442010-06-08T01:06:19.940-04:002010-06-08T01:06:19.940-04:00How moms and dads can be easily tickled with nosta...How moms and dads can be easily tickled with nostalgic elements...
