    I remember the Apollo program, the space race, the duck and cover drills (under our desks or in the hallways) and the landing on the moon. We were always playing, what we thought, was catch up with the Soviet Union. I would sit for hours and hours glued to the B/W tube watching the coverage. Hence the Avatar. Not a prettier bird than the LEM. It was a motivator to become an engineer. Got to work with some of the guys that programmed it's guidance and simulation computers. I am thankful for being born at the start of the 60s.

    Maybe I am seeing this wrong and you mean your only 6 years old without the lifetime of lessons learned.

    I see it this way.

    I look at it this way remember the lessons from the bad cherish the good memories .

    It works for me. To start all over now with a blank slate no thanks.

    I was gonna drag up my copy of Alice’s restaurant, but it’s going to take a while.
    Unless my first wife kept it in the divorce, it’s still up there.

    At one time That did bother me some what.

    Amazing what blown out hips and knees cause you to do.

    It is painful enough just getting sweat pants on.
