    I see the 70's as the time when Chauvinistic attitudes has left much of society in the west. I am very glad that today I am not looked down upon for my baking habits.

    I never gave a crap what other people thought about me. Me and Maw Deuce got along fine so everything else was details, nothing but details.

    I was born in 80, so sadly, I missed the decade. I believe I would have been into disco though for some reason. Looks fun!

    Weren't the 70's Dirty Harry and Steve McQueen? That's manly stuff. Those 2 cancel out Tiny Tim and Liberace.

    No, you will be relieved to hear I'm not much into Supertramp.

    But I will crank up "Disco Inferno" by The Trammps. :D :dance4:

    Skipper, we have standards in this forum and I know that you are fully aware of what they are. I would expect you not to post photos of this nature here, as it might scare small children and dogs that happen by a computer screen while it is up. Have you no decency? I expect more out of you than this. Pictures of the Perveson Brothers would be better posted on Stormfront.


    I just threw in the back of mouth a little bit.
    That sounds like a good woman you have there, Ulithi. You need to do all you can to keep her, including get rid of certain music albums.

    So, would it be considered "trolling" if I said Zeppelin bites and the Bee Gees rule? :lol:

    I'm running away now!! :panic::D

    Your wife has my deepest sympathies. There was a popular tee shirt in the 70s that expressed my thoughts on disco then and now: "Disco sucks".:mad:

    To me, the 70s were a period of bad music, bad hair, and bad clothes. I'm surprised the Republic survived.
