Crosby, Stills, & Nash cover

Cleveland won't let them into the Hall of Fame until they apologize for writing the blasphemous American Woman ;-)

Is that really why?

[_huckelberry]

Oh...…..why did you have to bring up Woodstock? One of my cousins was going and my mother wouldn't let me go because she didn't think he'd take care of me.

He went. I didn't.

I hindsight she was right to make that decision but it is one of the great disappointments of my life! I should have been in that crowd. Ticks me off just thinking about it.

Second only to that was when she wouldn't let my boyfriend take me to Times Square on NYE because she didn't think he'd take care of me either.

I just finished making his dinner. Go figure.

This is a well crafted short story, one to remember. Thanks Jersey Girl.

Yeah except for that typo, it's not bad and it's true!

I hindsight---->In hindsight.

First born only child--pay me no mind--chronic typo spotter!

First born only child. . .

As opposed to, "second born only child?"

You don't know what I'm referring to do you.

I suppose not. Is it a New Jersey saying or something?

[_Jersey Girl]

I suppose not. Is it a New Jersey saying or something?

Why are you here?

??? Now I'm more confused than before.

Please explain what "first born only child" means to you.

I had a friend who went to Woodstock. If you were not near the stage, the primary attraction was that you were in a muddy field with half a million people. If you ever saw The Life of Brian, there's a scene where the people at the back of the crowd are listening to the Sermon on the Mount, and they think Jesus said "blessed are the cheesemakers." That's what Woodstock was like at the back of the crowd. It was only after my friend left Woodstock that he realized that his mud bivouac was now part of the cultural zeitgeist of his generation.
