Do you dare?

I mean there is SO much old/young stuff goin on. Most are honest in their profiles (I said "most".) So let's be honest.

I've dated younger/older.....blah, blah, BLAH!!! It seems to me that passion, chemistry, compatibility, intelligence, and love conquers ALL!!!

However, we all have different points of reference.....


-People make a big deal that I was born in between MLK and RFK.

-In my sophomore year (being a "rocker") I had to sneak around with a girl who liked Duran Duran when their "Rio" album came out.

-My first concert was Dylan/Baez at Hollywood Bowl as a 1yo the same year as Woodstock.

I remember just "barely" being legal to buy alcohol (with my REAL license), buying some beers and seeing The Berlin Wall come down on tv, calling my Mom at work....and the beers stayed in the fridge.

School was only 30 miles away. I cruised down to El Toro and we watched and talked <3 !!

I open the refrigerator doors of anyone I can. That's how old Melmacian school I am.

Hey beach I got just a few years on you but I am with you all the way with the music and I also remember the Berlin Wall falling.Just great moments in history.I just love that era Sometimes when I get a rare day off work I put in some music from that era it just makes me feel so good.I learned my values from that time period.

When I was growing up it was the era of back street boys etc but I used to listen to hip-hop

When I was in elementary school. If you had Pogs or Pokemon, you were a king on the playground.

Well....do I dare say this in public? What the heck, here goes! I grew up during the time when the Beatles were all the rage....that time has seemed rather ageless to me...great memories, romance was not outdated, people still communicated face to face, definitely not a time which will be erased from my mind!! smitten Call me a hopeless romantic!
