It's the year I was born. Does that qualify me as a child of the 70's?

It is the year I graduated (or was asked to leave) Illinois State University

Its the year I became a saloon manager

Its the year I fell in love for life (unfortunately she didn't quite see things that way)

Its the year I bought my first car, a $50 Datsun 510 Station wagon

Its the year I went to Daytona for a week on $100

It's the year the Joes Bar N' Grill Amazing Softball Aces won the Normal (Il) Merchants League, one of the best softball leagues around (at least back then)

Its the first year I saw Jimmy (I think)

Moved to Dallas in 79





come to think of it 79 wasn't as good a year as 78 :-?

1979 was the year I moved from NH to Lafayette, LA. Talk about culture shock! That had to be the longest year of my life.

I saw my first KISS concert in '79. Shall I describe it?
