Forty Years Ago
If you were watching the nightly news with Walter Cronkite forty years ago, this is what you would have seen!
Vietnam was on everbody's mind!
This is that young girl after she grew up!
And, if you had a crystal ball, this is some of the stuff the rest of the year held in store for us.
Goldie Hawn made her debut and Martin Luther King made his exit.
Hair was growing and Bobby Kennedy was cut short.
The Beatles had their White Album
Kent State had it's riot.
Nixon arrived and so did Black Power. Both of them didn't last very long!

It's actually pretty depressing to remember all that. So much hope and optimism, and most of it came to nothing.
