When I talked about the good old days I used to mean, the fifties when gas wars meant 30¢/gal., drive-in movies, watching Zorro on b&w TV, and Little Richard singing Long Tall Sally. Then there was the sixties with the Beatles, Summer of Love, and the Ford Mustang. The seventies—Well there was Star Wars, and Apple Computers—cool, and Apollo 13. The 80s—meh. Pac-Man and the Rubics Cube. Now when I talk about the good old days, I mean about two months ago, when we could eat breakfast at Sunflower Cafe, take a walk in the park, and shake hands after a game of petanque. The year 2020. Yippee. Yikes.
