Where were you on this date in 1970?

Advertisements [?]

Unfortunately for me, I was drafted and serving my first day in the US Army at the ripe old age of 23. Thought I had avoided it with the lottery, but luck was not on my side.

Are times worse today? Yes, economically and politically they are ten times worse. Despite all of the shit going on back in the day, I would rather be 23 then than 23 today.

The future is THAT BAD!
