I first heard about the Beatles on the Ed Sullivan show on Feb 9, 1964.
That was 80 days after Pres John F Kennedy was murdered.
At one point 80 days was a very short time -- could be a race in fact ! -- in which to circle the planet.
Now you can jet around Planet Earth in a day or so, even by public airline.
It's an amazing experience to be alive.
Of course, to be clear, that's just my personal opinion.
You may think that life is very ordinary & needs goosing up with fantasy.
Me? I stick to fact.
@6, you're a ridiculous boor. Doing this on every thread isn't helping anyone or anything. Your little troll jihad is boring, pointless, and beyond tiresome. You give Bernie Bros a bad name, and that is definitely saying something.
And strangerino(who doesn't seem to have noticed that The Stranger ENDORSED Bernie in the Washington caucuses) outed himself as a Trump supporter in this thread:
Even as a die hard Bernie supporter (but never a Bernie or Buster), strangerino is becoming old and tiresome. If Hillary couldn't win over certain people, an Atheist Jew would have had no chance. That is sad, but inevitably true.
Charles, you've been killing it recently. I hope this isn't the swan song before you leave this place. Regardless, thanks for your presence. Of all the weekly alternative papers in the world, this one is infinitely the Mudedest.

Have a good new year, Charles.
