I wish it were 1979 again...

[Bush loves Jiang]

Canada's 1979 election had Left (Joe Clark's Progressive Conservatives), Lefter (Pierre Trudeau's Liberals), and Leftist (Ed Broadbent's NDP).

Isn't it funny that all 3 of these leaders are/were left of Paul Martin?

BTW, BROADBENT MIGHT BE RUNNING AS AN MP IN 2004!!!!!!!!!!!!! WHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!

1. Me too,I partied every day,

Then the weight of the world crushed all my hopes and dreams.
Welcome to DU,I think you'll like it.

9. Wow, I'd still be

Nothing but a glimmer in my father's eyes, until Feb. 79 at least.

3. Me, three - Wasn't Margaret around then?

Had the hots for Margaret Trudeau (second post tonight I have mentioned her - geez). Always loved the Windsor Ballet, too, if you get my drift.

4. Forget It !!!

[hatrack]

5. So I'd have to listen to "Children Of The Sun" every 10 minutes again?

No thank you very much!

To say nothing of endless, infinity-spanning repetitions of every song on "Desolation Angels" by Bad Company.

Besides, my hair really, really SUCKED back then - and I don't want to experience that again, either!! ;-)

6. "I wish it could be 1965 again"

Sorry, just an obligatory Barracudas reference there.

Shindig, Hullaballoo, Bandstand and Where The Action is too...

7. Oh yeah.

The year of the statistical height of marijuana usage in America. The year of the second energy crisis in five years. The year between Jonestown and Lennon's murder. The year after the death of Keith Moon. The year the country turned on Jimmy Carter for circumstances beyond his control. The year the Ayatollah Khomeini took over Iran. I was four years old that year....

8. But, then I wouldn't be alive.....

THAT would really be sad.

10. Bet I wouldn't want that

for though a certain "Aschcroft repeller" aka calico kitty I had by the name of Ginger would be alive again, a certain American I knew would be a captive in the Iranian Foreign Ministry and he wouldn't want to go through the "hostage stuff" again for all the oil in Saudi Arabia.
