Don`t bother knocking if the van is rocking!

These were the bumper stickers we had to reassure the girls parents that we were responsible young men that only had vans to carry our tools of trade.hehehe :wink:

Lonnie if you aint 40 yet you must have been a late bloomer as a hippie.

I can see all the 80's yupsters in their BMW's saying.. look it's joe dirt.. LOL

Most of the hippies I know(of) were like 5-10 years older than me, puts them mid-late 50s. So now they run the place. And what have we got?
Iraq instead of Vietnam. Good job, hippies, on changing the world... :roll:

JC i will be 56 in Dec i just wanted to go back to 40. I've been single sence i was 44, ya know old enough to know better still to young to care. I dont run nothing but the lawn mower, weed eater and my John Deere. Anything more than that would spell danger.

Alan Mclennan, if i went back to 30 i would get in tooooo much trouble knowing what i know now.

haha, that's cool about Heart. I didn't even catch on. I wonder if they know about it? I should get them to bid on it!

Johnny Canuck · Post by **Johnny Canuck** » October 7, 2007, 9:20 am

I remember going to see Heart when they were a Canadian band LOL and Both the girls were hotties. Then they moved back to Seatlle after they dumped their Draft Dodger boyfriends and Ann started eating hay. :cry:

Oh and happy birthday Lonnie!

Haha! Too funny. They still play locally to sell out crowds and sound good as ever. Ann has an amazing voice. I've known them since the 70's
