Could you imagine living in 1969?

Me too.
Once of my earliest memories is of watching Neil Armstrong stepping onto the moon on my Nan's telly.@snaprails @TheEddieShow @cmconseils I'm surprised it was economically viable to get your Nan's telly to the moon for him to step on! 1969 payload costs were bonkers.

Could you imagine living in 1969? Sending astronauts to the moon. Fighting a useless war and the president is a crook.
@cmconseils At least they had better hair. ^^

Indeed, which is why it was much easier to bring the moon down onto my Nan's telly

@cmconseils
Pretty hard to imagine. I'm so glad Congress and DOJ held that criminal president fully accountable in 1969. Did he die in prison? Future presidents will definitely think twice about breaking the law... WAIT!

@cmconseils can you imagine what it must have been like back then ... then ... then [fade to 1969, gas is $0.35 ($3.19 adjusted for inflation)]

@cmconseils Ah, to live in a time when the other two branches of government and the Fourth Estate were still slightly useful.

@cmconseils being born then was quite the thing for me.

@cmconseils I was there. I'm nostalgic for it - Nixon's crimes are only about a week's worth of this year's crimes. And there was only one useless war. And there were intrepid WaPo reporters ON IT. And we only read the news once a day.
