I thought the coolest cartoon was "Eighth Man". It was shown in the US probably about 1964.Ivan Seeking said:Okay, this was THE coolest cartoon made in the sixties.

Anyone younger than dirt, what do you think is the most interesting aspect?
Some of my favorites-cutting the waist band off Levi's (back in fashion recently). Flower Power stickers. Moby Grape. Hitchhiking to the demolition derby.

I didn't use that line. My younger sisters' classmates (1-3 grades back) would muckle on to me. I had crushes on some older girls, but I didn't have the time or motivation to chase them, except for a senior in my sophomore year who was a cheerleader and who sat with me on every long-distance bus-trip. She was really pretty and she was the younger sister of a guy that I used to play blues/rock with. She's 57, still as cute as hell, and we still connect when we see each other.Ivan Seeking said:I have thought that many times. I matured during the most sexually casual [and safe] period in human history. We had the pill, and STDs were only a shot away from cured.
But the popular line was still "coffee, tea, or me".
