1973

I'm setting my novella in 1973, so I wanted a convenient link to

Super70s.com

You may ask yourself, what was happening in 1973? I was in the third grade. I had pants that looked like couch upholstery, and crepe shoes that elevated me four inches. We were negotiating a cease-fire in Viet Nam, finally, and a great deal of attention was being given to the anti-Christ Tricky Dick Nixon.

Brrrrr! That's a rather chilling image to end with. Maybe this is better?

Today, be cool, and do your own thing.

Peace,

Catherine

in retrospect, lava lamps have held up better than Tricky Dick. i had some in my office a couple of years ago (one in black, and then two small ones in pink) and they consistently got oohs and aahs. i'm sure the reaction wouldn't have been anywhere near as good if Nixon had been there.
