I was born in the wrong era!!!!!!!

I used to think that I was born too late too. But not any more. Born in 67 I grew up in the 70's. still had cool Sat morning cartoons, bikes like Schwinn Stingrays etc. , no real tech so we'd be outside all the time etc.

By the time I started driving in the mid 80's, most of my friends had either old muscle cars which were getting pretty rusty or newer "muscle" Monte SS's, IROCS or late 70's F Bodies. Lots of street racing, cruising or hanging out in parking lots BS'ing about cars and girls. No cell phones so we'd use CB radios to find out where everyone was hanging out.

Now I'm old enough to remember those times as well as things like being able to quit one job and have options for 2 or 3 more by the end of the day, full time, with health care that didn't have a deductible and was funded soley by the employer. I'm also old enough to have, restore and enjoy the rust buckets of my youth that I didn't have the skills or money to fix back then. And with ME TV I can watch all the cool old programming I was too young to enjoy at the time.

As cool and enjoyable as it is to watch Adam 12 or Two Lane Blacktop, seeing the "old cars" and technology etc and wish I had a time machine, the reality is I really don't relish the thought of getting my A$$ sent to some jungle to shoot at or get shot by someone I've never met. But take that out of the equation and, well......

yeah it'd be pretty cool. Maybe if I could just go back at my current age . . . . .
