Paying attention to the lyrics from our youth is horrifying....such as "I want to be Bobby's girl". Why?? Lol.

Paying attention to just about anything from my youth is fairly horrifying.

perfectly true. but when I start to tell stories about back in those days, a lot of the bad shit seems to filter itself out. I was caught in the middle of a gunfight once, and it ALWAYS sounds funny, even the part about me hitting the ground and praying really LOUD, which leads me to think that my fourth grade teacher might have been right about there being "no atheists in the foxholes." in which case, that's the ONLY thing she was ever right about.

I'll say this about "those days," and some of them were some pretty rough road, they have produced an endless supply of great stories.
