Here we are, four buddies from college. Those kinds of glasses are passe now, but so are striped shirts, digital wrist watches, rubber shoes that doesn't have air in them, and really long hair. But we still look back, and often talk about, the time we took time-off to enjoy our youth.

We talked about lots of things then. About cars and girls, but mostly cars. We may even have wondered aloud who was most likely to succeed. (I sort of remember there was a stray dog under a table somewhere beside us, and we unanimously pointed at him.)

Yup, those were the days when life was simpler. Five channels on TV, FM radio, LP records and phones that needed to be attached to the wall. Will our grandchildren believe such a time existed? I doubt it. My children already have a hard time believing TV's once came in black and white!
