Yeah Ken, those are rare events now days when 2 Hot Rods see each other on the road... man it kills me to even say that!! Now kids have I-Phones & Toyota Prius's w/ satellite capabilities... Wait.... BBHHHHAAALLLLHHHHH!!!!!! (I had to PUKE real quick). Anyways, "Cyber-Sex"... that is the new generation here. (It is like seeing an AAR 71 Cuda w/ a slant-6 engine).... TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT.
My generation is later b/c I am younger than you. But even in the late 80's I could cruise "Central Ave" in Phoenix on a Saturday night & it was like a rolling car-show. Cops were everywhere though... women everywhere too... good times. THOSE DAYS ARE GONE. It was a season... a season our kids will never even comprehend.
Memories like 2-lane black top, American grafftti, Easy-Riders, however you define those days/or season... all we have now is a few movies, pictures, memories, etc... that can capture going back in time to define those days. I caught the last tail-end of that generation... then it was gone like a dream.

Well Dennis, ya been missed, Brother. Hope 'things' get sorted out. Everything happens for a reason, it's up to us to 'find' that reason and move on. Just like the election. Good to hear you're still kickin' !
