Sex, Drugs And Rock And Roll

Sex, Drugs And Rock And Roll

I'm a product of the fifties and sixties. I was managing six people at a major corporation in 1965. I got married in 1964. I had two children before 1969. I went to college (night school) for six years starting in 1965. My back went out in 1969.

Therefore, I miss the best times of Sex. Drugs And Rock And Roll. The main thing I had then and still have today is the Rock And Roll.

I listen to my somewhat younger friends and family about the fun and somewhat scary times they had at the height of the Sex, Drugs and Rock And Roll era. They all have a big smile on their face when they describe what life was like during those times.

I grew up in a very old school family so I might not have participated even if I grew up then, but it sure would have been interesting, to say the least, if I could have lived through those times. Do I feel like I missed something great - you bet-um.

Today wild Sex with anyone willing has been replaced with love for the one I love most. Today I have no interest in wild Sex, but being a Sexual animal, even today, it sure would have been nice to have a bunch of notches on my bedposts back then.

Today Drugs include help with my high blood pressure, shrink my benign enlarged prostate, relieve pain from my bad back and help me poop regulatory. I missed out on the great Sex from taking Quaaludes (Ludes as they called them then). I missed out on going through College high on Pot. I missed out on getting stoned out of my mind on Cocaine.

Oh, sure, I smoked some Pot and sniffed some Cocaine, but I did that in my thirties and forties not in the hay day of Sex, Drugs And Rock And Roll. It's was a lot different at that age than the Cheech and Chong days. I missed out on the stoned out parties where everyone would come up to you and say: "what's up man."

Well the past is the past. I can't go back, sooo, I've had to find happiness in making wonderful love to my wonderful wife, being healthy, enjoying traveling, eating great food, being an intense football fan, laughing with my friends and the one thing I hung on to my whole life:

Loving Rock And Roll
