Wow, ran downstairs for just a minute, came back and I hear the Stooges! Let's hear it for 1969!

but we ain't complainin'!!!

AL seems to be trying to cover each decade ('60s '70s '80s '90s) + one "theme set" each week. '90s tomorrow, then perhaps a "summer" set on Friday?

Stooges "1969", making only its 2nd appearance iirc.

OMG! the draft lottery! This is amazing.  DM obviously had his library of clips, and only very occasionally did he add something new. But AL is spending lots of time on the interwebs, it seems.

My number was quite high -- in the 300's iirc. I was a (you guessed it) "Fortunate Son"

I think 165 was right in the middle. In the draft lottery, they'd draw dates (month/day) out of a hopper, and whatever order they were drawn in determined the draft priority for those born on that date. Sept. 14 was drawn first, so pretty much everyone of draft age born on that date got drafted unless you could come up with a deferrment or your daddy was George H.W. Bush.

I believe it was written for the TV show (that's not them doing it on the show, I don't think) and they saw a good cover opportunity.

Dang it.  I was in Sacramento yesterday & missed this.  Have to catch the Saturday replay I guess.

Regarding draft numbers, I once heard a pastor friend of my dad's talk about being in a HS assembly when the draft numbers for his year were announced, and in the audience was a guy with the #1 date & one with with the #365.  His was #69, so a week later he went ahead and enlisted so he could try to become a chaplain instead of infantry.  And he did.

P.S. went to Sacto to pick my cousin Jerome (he of the Madonna concert incident) up at the airport.  He's going to a wedding in Tahoe over the weekend, so I contrived to spend the day with him before he went up to South Lake.  He told me that he finally gets to go to court next Tuesday to fight the trespassing charges against him, and it turns out that when his lawyer first began discussing the case with her paralegal, the paralegal said, "Wait a minute.  I was there.  I sat directly behind that guy & saw the whole thing!"  She'd never met Jerome, but remembers talking to his boyfriend earlier in the show when he turned around to ask her if it was okay that he set somehting down behind his seat.  So she's going to testify on Jerome's behalf.  How's that for serendipity?

And as soon as that's cleared up he intends to sue.
