My friends and I had a long walk home in Jr.High carrying all those stupid books we never opened when we got home (no backpacks back then). We used to re-enact parts of the most recent episode as we walked along.

On their show they were very mild by today's standards. By that time even Walter Cronkite had turned against it,so CBS (yes, owned by GE) shouldn't have gotten bent out of shape.

I suppose it was mild; that there was any anti-war sentiment televised at that time was amazing. ------------------------------------- Smothered: The Great Smothers Brothers Censorship Wars (2002) With their blend of folk singing and stand-up comedy, Tom and Dick Smothers became a popular nightclub attraction in the early 1960's and were frequent guests on many television variety shows of the day. In 1967, in a bid to win younger viewers away from NBC's perennially popular western series Bonanza, CBS gave The Smothers Brothers an hour-long comedy-variety series airing on Sunday evenings The show became an unexpected hit, and in their second season, The Smother Brothers and their writing staff (which at the time included Rob Reiner and Steve Martin) began using the show as a platform for satiric humor which examined key issues of the day, including the war in Vietnam, drugs, racism, and the right-wing policies of the Nixon White House. While the show remained popular, it also became wildly controversial, and the Smothers Brothers soon found themselves battling their network and the FCC for the right to say what they wanted on their own show. Smothered: The Great Smothers Brothers Censorship Wars is a documentary which explores the history of the show, and how network brass and Nixon's cabinet worked together to pull the plug on a hit TV series; the film includes interviews with Tom and Dick Smothers, Rob Reiner, Pete Seeger, Harry Belafonte, and Joan Baez. ~ Mark Deming, All Movie Guide

To heck with the 60s, take me back to the 80s. The 1780s. :)

As we meandered our way through the ever busy Bree Street, Harry could not help observing how filthy downtown Johannesburg had become. I had made the same disturbing observation myself the day I arrived, but had been reluctant to accept the disturbing fact that decay of public infrastructure seems to be the story in areas of the city inhabited by blacks. Predominantly black areas have become an eyesore. The beautiful lawns and flowerbeds I noticed in some areas three years earlier now tell sad stories of degradation. Some of them have become open-air urinals.

there's not a thing I would trade for the fabulousness of coming of age in the 60s. seriously. I could die tomorrow and my life would be complete because I was 15 in 1968. those older and younger, can yell at me (I don't hear you!), it shaped my life and I don't regret a second of it. I want everyone to feel that connected growing up.

In 1970 I went to the infamose Power Ridge Pop Festival that was to be at Connecticut's only ski resort. As you see by the sign, it was cancelled by court order. But we all had lots of LSD and we all camped, swam, and tripped. I was 16, and had a groovy time. ;-)
