I remember pointing out to my Dad (b 1930) that WW-II was as temporally distant to my son (b 2009) as the Civil War was to his birth.
"Smells Like Teen Spirit" was released 30 years ago. "I Wanna Hold Your Hand" was released 28 years before that. I don't think we're getting another one of those.
@George-K Goose/Gander.
It depends on how far they take it. I’d argue Waters’ encouraging confrontation of administration officials absolutely qualifies her for losing her seat.
But stripping someone of their seat for criticizing a foreign government? That’s not ok and is certainly not “goose/gander” material.

We haven't. Other than a brief stint in the first Gulf War and an even briefer stint during Gulf War II, our fighting has been mostly small unit, counter-insurgency and police-state work.
