moose 57 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 John Wayne Variety Special 1970 Short Video Outstanding This is one I think you will really enjoy. It’s probably only so special because they’re all pretty much gone now http://biggeekdad.com/2014/09/john-wayne-1970/#.VCHJXVfNNJ8.email h.a.n.d. 10 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
divemaster5734 Posted April 18, 2016 Report Share Posted April 18, 2016 Watching that brought home what is missing from America. No matter what show, there was always the underlying theme. Now, all those voices of reason are drowned out by insanity. I really had no idea how good we had it back then. Wasn't "rich", ran around barefoot, torn knees, bee stings, and lots of stitches. Life wasn't "perfect", but one thing for sure, I didn't have to worry about getting killed by a stray bullet in a drive by, or have to memorize rival gang members in order to walk home from school without being shot. No wonder kids today are totally screwed up. Thanks for the memory. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets not forget leaving the doors opened and unlocked with just a screen door when going to the store. You didn't have to worry about being burglarized. Neighbors looked out for one another. Times have really changed. I pray that some day we get back to the Good Ole Days. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
millionaire in training Posted April 22, 2016 Report Share Posted April 22, 2016 Thanks Moose that was so nice. All of our "Old Greats". Did bring back that feeling of when life was easier. Oh how I miss life as it use to be. We didn't have much at that time but there was a sense of peace that we don't have any more. Life was slower and it felt like we didn't have as much to worry about as we do today. Now we have more but with that comes so much more fear and worry. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DinarMillionaire Posted April 23, 2016 Report Share Posted April 23, 2016 Great Americans of yesteryear. Ask a group from Hollyweird today to sing the National anthem...they'd probably break out singing "Himno Nacional de Venezuela". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
