Just remembered...97 or 98? HongKong being handed back by the british...surely not as significant for us, as it was for them.

Both biggies, definately. I felt really bad for hong kong...

And having a wife and a daughter, the cervical cancer vaccine is really exciting news.

I guess the capture of Saddam, and everything that's gone in in Iraq since is a change...for the better or worse, I'm really not sure...

Damn....many changes in my life. Anybody remember rotary phones...you put your finger in the dial and move it.

I would listen to music on Records or [gasp] 8-tracks [the stupidest music format to date ].

3 channels on the TV and I would have to get off my ass to change the channel.

1st man on the moon.

Portable car phones came around when I was a teen.....but they were just for the rich and were huge and stationary.

CGI...........never heard of it....monsters wore a suit....with a zipper.

You could have sex with anybody....but watch out for the dreaded VD.......then you would have to get a couple of shots and you were all better.




fuck......i'm old

I almost could have used the diapers in Florida.

yes .... but did you know that there is a version of pigs on the wing (from pink floyds's animals) that is extended and was only available on 8-track ?

i think it recently became available on someone's solo album .. but its hard to find.

at least i'm pretty sure it's pigs on the wing..

But we'll never fully hand Australia back, because the bladdy galahs would end up in a roight bladdy mess.
