Well, video gaming aside, I'm pretty much in agreement with your assessment of the world situation and how great the 70's were (the 60's were pretty good too). I think I need new glasses pretty soon also. But about video games, well, I'm still playing Brain Training (and BT2). And I'm still crazy after all these years.  |
Judging from the social and cultural revolutions going on in the 60s I have no doubt that this decade was even greater than the 70s, but I was too young to have any personal experience. The only thing I remember from the 60s is the moon landing (it's burnt into my memory as about 30 extremely excited adults gathered in my parents' living-room to watch it on one of the few TV's owned by my relations).
Hm, I thought you're only one year older. Do you have personal memories of the 60s?
And a bit more on topic: Maybe unconsciously I'm taking Wii Fit as a personal threat as I don't really like any exercise equipment. But the damned 80s still got me - like everyone else 
- and so I bought a used recumbent ergometer (or whatever this thing is called) some days ago. It will be delivered in 2 weeks and I'm not sure if I'll be using this thing more than once or twice (atthough I plan to use it regularly, of course - as always, of course). I have a bad feeling this will soon be used as a 2nd clotheshorse, just like the old ergometer that collected more dust during the last 6 years than any Wii in the world. I think I'll have another smoke now...
