Poll question: What decade do you think was the best?

I personally am a child of the '90s. Great music and cool TV shows. Not like the crap that we have now.

1. The '70s

Any decade in which one gets one's driver's license and loses one's virginity is the best one. :thumbsup:

4. yep. the 70s

sunday family drives with dad juicing on a six pack of olympia beer, chucking empties, going to the rock quarry to go fishing, being able to be a child and staying out from sunup to sundown and GETTING IN TROUBLE for hanging around inside the house during summer vacation . . .

5. Depends on your age - 60's for all boomers

The music went from Frankie Avalon and Pat Boone to the Beatles, Stones, Zep, Pink Floyd, Who.
Every week some new awesome album came out - or so it seems now.

6. The decade I grew up in.

Obviously.

Next question.

7. The 60's for the following reasons

1) We had Jack, Bobby and Martin. It hurt like hell to lose them, but at least we had them.

2) I was a kid, and it was a basically a secure time for me (I was very lucky).

3) The music was righteous.

4) The neocons hate everything about the 60's.

8. I voted for the 60s because

the past 3 decades have been a blur!

[trof]

9. 50s. I OWNED the 50s.

Me and my '58 Impala.
Oh yeah.

[BornagainDUer]

11. 60's. But then that's when I was growing up.

12. No question.

15. The '60s were turbulent

but I sure had fun. '70s is a close second, as I was kind of continuing on with the '60s thing in many respects, at least the first half.

16. For me personally, it was the '90s

I was in my twenties, Nirvana and lots of other good music, going out with my friends, and about 10lbs thinner.

Life is good now, but i did love the 90's.
