I think its the opposite now, kids are so pressured to live up to the expectations the world sets for them. They are trying to plan their lives out more and more and when one step in their plan fails they see it as the end of their world. Whether it is getting into that college or just being successful in general. Everyone can see your life and every detail, and I think Social Media has ruined the world.

Wow, what a delicious slice of bygone American pop culture! I think these guys charted something like 29 singles, 10th on the all time Billboard 100 list, and its easy to see why., Their hits were bursting with so many memorable hooks you only had to hear a song once, and you couldn’t get it out of your head. The lyrics never sounded forced or trite, and seemed to flow naturally from the beautifully crafted melodies. Rob is gone, but the music lives on!

I love this group! And Jimmy Durante's introduction adds some gravity to the occasion. Most, if not all of the group's members have passed away, but "God has given, and God has taken away. Praise to God." Never forget the people in your lives. 'When a loved one becomes a memory, that memory becomes a treasure.'

fogologo100 It was a little amusement park that a man named Grandpa Wilsey built himself. It was taken over by the Y's men. I remember "Docs" on Hilltop Drive and the drive-ins. Not there anymore? It's been so long since I was at any of those places, I can't remember where the MWards was! (My Gma *loved* Wards so I know we went. Lol.) She had a house off Hwy 5 that my Gpa built for her out of adobe. When 5 came in they pulled Imminent Domain and gave her 3+ acres and a house out in Enterprise. That was (OMG) 52 years ago! Do you still live around there?
