You have identified the difference between the baby boomers and their predecessors.

Wouldn't know---never saw the show unless I was unlucky enough to be home when my parents and grandma were watching it. I do know they always had some guy with an accordion.

Typical would be a hard working successful person who took responsibility for their own future and didn't depend on a government handout. Education is all over the map from HS grads to PhD, just like their incomes and professions while working, but meet them on the golf course or pickle ball court unless you ask you can't tell if they live in a mobile home or a $1M+ premiere home, not that most even care. Most all are enjoying the fruits of their labor and life here in The Villages. Beyond this the people here are all over the place when it comes to likes, dislikes, hobbies, interest, politics, and passions, a great cross section of successful America.

From 1971. According to Rolling Stone it is in the Top 15 Stoner Songs list. Just think, you could have been in your own home watching this. Who knew Lawrence Well was so progressive?
