SMILE!!!



Do you know what happened this week back in 1850, 158 years ago?


California became a state.
The State had no electricity.
The State had no money.
Almost everyone spoke Spanish.
There were gunfights in the streets.


So basically, it was just like California today; except the
women had real breasts and the men didn't hold hands.

&gt; *Long ago and far away, in a land that time forgot,**
&gt; Before the days of Dylan, or the dawn of Camelot.
&gt; There lived a race of innocents, and they were you and me,
&gt;
&gt; For Ike was in the White House in that land where we were born,
&gt; Where navels were for oranges, and Peyton Place was porn.
&gt;
&gt; We learned to gut a muffler, we washed our hair at dawn,
&gt; We spread our crinolines to dry in circles on the lawn.
&gt;
&gt; We longed for love and romance, and waited for our Prince,
&gt; And Eddie Fisher married Liz, and no one's seen him since.
&gt;
&gt; We danced to 'Little Darlin,' and sang to 'Stagger Lee'
&gt; And cried for Buddy Holly in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; Only girls wore earrings then, and 3 was one too many,
&gt; And only boys wore flat-top cuts, except for Jean McKinney.
&gt;
&gt; And only in our wildest dreams did we expect to seeA boy named George with
&gt; Lipstick, in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; We fell for Frankie Avalon, Annette was oh, so nice,
&gt; And when they made a movie, they never made it twice.
&gt;
&gt; We didn't have a Star Trek Five, or Psycho Two and Three,
&gt; Or Rocky-Rambo Twenty in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; Miss Kitty had a heart of gold, and Chester had a limp,
&gt; And Reagan was a Democrat whose co-star was a chimp.
&gt;
&gt; We had a Mr. Wizard, but not a Mr. T ,
&gt; And Oprah couldn't talk, yet, in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; We had our share of heroes, we never thought they'd go,
&gt; At least not Bobby Darin, or Marilyn Monroe.
&gt;
&gt; For youth was still eternal, and life was yet to be,
&gt; And Elvis was forever in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; We'd never seen the rock band that was Grateful to be Dead,
&gt; And Airplanes weren't named Jefferson, and Zeppelins were not Led.
&gt;
&gt; And Beatles lived in gardens then, a nd Monkees lived in trees,
&gt; Madonna was a virgin in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; We'd never heard of microwaves, or telephones in cars,
&gt; And babies might be bottle-fed, but they weren't grown in jars.
&gt;
&gt; And pumping iron got wrinkles out, and 'gay' meant fancy-free,
&gt; And dorms were never coed in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt; *
&gt; *We hadn't seen enough of jets to talk about the lag,
&gt; And microchips were what was left at the bottom of the bag.
&gt;
&gt; And Hardware was a box of nails, and bytes came from a flea,
&gt; And rocket ships were fiction in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; Buicks came with portholes, and side shows came with freaks,
&gt; And bathing suits came big enough to cover both your cheeks.
&gt;
&gt; And Coke came just in bottles, and skirts below the knee,
&gt; And Castro came to power near the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; We had no Crest with Fluoride, we had no Hill Street Blues,
&gt; We had no patterned pantyhose or Lipton herbal tea
&gt; Or prime-time ads for condoms in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; There were no golden arches, no Perrier to chill,
&gt; And fish were not called Wanda, and cats were not called Bill.
&gt;
&gt; And middle-aged was 35 and old was forty-three,
&gt; And ancient were our parents in the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; But all things have a season, or so we've heard them say,
&gt; And now instead of Maybelline we swear by Retin-A.
&gt;
&gt; They send us invitations to join AARP,
&gt; We've come a long way, baby, from the Land That Made Me Me.
&gt;
&gt; So now we face a brave new world in slightly larger jeans,
&gt; And wonder why they're using smaller print in magazines.
&gt; And we tell our children's children of the way it used to be,
&gt; Long ago and far away in the Land That Made Me Me.
