Show Description

[ Courtesy: David Goldin - 06-17-2024 ]   
  People have received more hand-held computers than ever before in history (he is referring to "calculators," not "computers"). The commercial for Luchow's Christmas festival is very nostalgic. People will soon be nostalgic for 1974, starting a few months into 1975. True believers. Shep predicts that more television shows will feature dramatizations of crises and current events.

"Can you imagine 4,000 years passing, and you're not even a memory?
Think about it, friends. It's not just a possibility. It is a certainty." - Jean Shepherd - 1975
