Go figure...one commodity is cheaper now than it was 20 years ago. 1970 Viet Namize Black was $1.50 a gram Honest green $1.00 a gram 4-way windowpane was $3.00 a hit Orange sunshine at $1.00 a hit Purple Microdot $1.00 a hit 1969 Libframilch $2.00 a bottle. Now it sells for $116.00. Drank that stuff by the case. |

Pulling my mother's left arm out of the rubble.
Putting on the water for Fifi. Talking my sister into going down on the General so we could get a whole turnip. Loading cartloads of manure with my bare hands. Picking nails out of boards with my first teeth to sell to the arms dealer (he paid cash for metal.) Tying down and burning the math teacher with gasoline. The first Beatles album. The miniskirt. The maxi skirt. The plastic squirt gun. The transistor radio. The tape recorder (reel to reel). My first wiener schnitzel. Losing my virginity and also that of my Russian tutor. Getting sacked at work for talking back to the man with the whip. The shooting ranges. The Olaf Pilaf. |

.10 cent soda pop
my dad doing the Woody Woodpecker 'laugh' Van Halen's 1984 concert my first pair of heels my first car - a bright yellow Vega hatchback 
a nightmare from when I was 3 ... yup I still remember every detail the year I was a redhead ... I was feisty ... there is something to red hair
and a most embarrassing moment when I was 13ish ... I was at a main intersection waiting to cross the street. VERY cute guy with friends in a Trans AM (yes it was a big deal way back then  ) with loud music playing ...
traffic light changes ... I take one step off the curb as my shoe flies off my foot and lands right in front of his car half way across the street ... and me having to limp out with one shoe to collect it ... I am still mortified!
And double feature movies! |
