time travel

it is a long time belief that i should have been born in the 1940s (in or near the year 1943).
here is why:
i would have been 20-something years old in the 1960s.
the music & art from this era match my soul so much more than anything else from present day.
music was pure, and possessed great skill and passion. you really had to be great.
art was so expressive and raw. real materials and human hands created thought-provoking paintings and sculptures.
everything was real.
technology had not yet corrupted these two elements.
this is where i belonged then, or perhaps belong now.
if i had the opportunity to time travel, i know where i would go, and probably stay.

    I love time travel.

    Remember, always to pack an umbrella.

    Anyway, best dash, catching The Zombies tonight...

  2. I feel the same way. Sometimes I think I'm a 70 year old inside this body.
