From 1974: The Geezer Edition

I'm back.  These days, I'm not blogging as often as I was, but I'm still around.  Thanks to those of you who dropped me a line and asked where I was.  Would you believe me if I told that I was in jail?

You would?

Okay, then.

From August 8, 1974, and the broadcast of NBC Nightly News, and the coverage of "the ordeal of President Nixon."  Take five minutes for yourself, and take things back to Watergate.  The pants were plaid, the news viewers were old and crotchety and opinionated, and the country was going to hell in a handcart being driven by a bunch of rich white men.  Everything old is new again, I guess.  Except for maybe the plaid pants.

If It's Friday, That Means A Block Of Commercials From 1974



Happy weekend, everybody.
(I already am laying plans for a Blue Moon margarita with my husband tonight!)

Also, I'd like to thank all of you who come and share my blog. It's nice to know that there are others out there who like to take a break from the present and remember the past.
