I might have to endure another 4 years of that asshole at my age. I should be able to enjoy my sunset years, surrounded by my children and grandchildren, drinking good wine, posting here. I dread the coming year. Asshole could mean Trump or Biden, btw.
Hell, we have a crummy home schedule, I could even skip the football season until the USC game.
I could re-live 1966, 1973, 1977, or 1988 again.
The great aerospace depression of the 1970s makes me unwilling to go back to that time. Sometime in the late '70s, probably '78 or '79, that ND informed me that the pittance I was able to donate each year was insufficient. This at a time when writing a check for $5 was a serious financial decision.
It was the 1990s before that insult healed enough for me to return to the fold. The scar remains and ND does not get anywhere near the contributions that it might as a result.
