All around it seems like retro is in......from cars to fashion to.....you name it!Everyone seems to have nostalgia for the past and the way things used to be. I would probably want to re-live the 80's....do the college days again,get into all the wild new wave music that came out,spending the summers travelling etc. The good ol' days... |

For me - the 70's. Same things as you Roman - college days in early part of the decade. Finally being out on my own. Getting married, then divorced. My wild single days in the mid 70's...... My first new house, a couple of Corvettes, road trips. OR I could relive the 2000's - driving my Prowler, POA events, .................. |

It would be allright if I could backup a day at a time. When I got to the mid 70s, I would just stop there. I use to get in a lot of trouble in the 70s. Sure was fun. O yea, I want to carry my Prowler back in time with me also. ------------------ |

Marty, What are you talkin' about. The best three years of your life was the fourth grade, and you probably can't remember one of your date's in the 70's |

Nope, don't want to go back to work, don't want to raise kids, don't want to have to worry about where the money will be coming from to pay the bills, don't want to worry about her getting pregnant, and on and on. I like it here and now and glad to be here to enjoy it. Pumpkin wishes he could jump forward to inside plumbing. lol |

Late 70's or early 80's for sure, or I think. I had so much fun around that time that I can probably only say all of the fun happened somewhere in that 10 year period.  |

the 60's were the best for me..... There was so much fun between 6 and 16.....I loved being a kid, everything was centered around sports and Dad was more than happy to pay for it.... I spent the 70's wanting to be older, to buy more stuff, cars , beer, stereo, motorcycles, more beer.... in the 70's I found out I was going to have to work my bag off till I was 65...bummer ... Got crazy glued to a house, wife and kids in the 80's.... spent the last 25 years wishing I was a kid again.... then I bought the Prowler, and from time to time, feel like I'm just a kid in the 60's with a new bike...going fast and lovin every minute of it... Its all good .... |

The early 50's I was still wondering what shoes were. The late 50's, found out there was more to a chicken than the legs - finally got breast meat at the dinner table. The 60's figuring out which breast was the smallest The 70's was Air Force ...uuugh I forget man...snornin' tootin' smokin'...but I never inhaled. Some Goats - Opel GT's,girls,parking,drinking ...not in that order The 80's GI Bill-college more cars,more girls,more drinking,1st wife...thinking with wrong head - divorced. The 90's have 3 wonderful kids, 2nd wife...didn't keep a close eye on things - divorced. - fun career and fun friends The 00's still above ground..... |

I guess I'd go back to the 60's. They tell me I had a great time, but I don't remember too much! I used to tell my daughter not to drink and drive. She'd say "Dad, you grew up in the 60s, everybody knows what YOU guys did, so you don't need to lecture me now..." - Dated wonderful girls - Betty Divilbiss, Jill Moroski, Anna Holderby, Louise Damaco, Debbie Pritchard, and Gloria (didn't get her last name, but I'm surprised I remembered all the other names...) Went in the USAF in 1968 and bought a 68 Charger with a 383. In the USAF I was still rocking and rolling and no one knew what to do with me; hated getting hair cuts every week and so they stuck me in a Minuteman nuclear missile silo in Knob Noster, Missouri. (I know I did other stuff in the 60s, like go to to Frank Zappa, and Donovan concerts, I just don't remember that much.) - Late 60s - Met a pretty girl and got married then realized we made a terrible mistake and got divorced. - Early 70s - shipped overseas and I was never heard from again until 2003. I just hope the lives of the people I mentioned turned out really great in spite of coming in contact with me when I was really irresponsible... |
