...but 71 is one of the strongest years on the Big Wheel, so no complaints here. And it's Rev. Al--Lawd have mercy!!

indeed, BOS to the Rev.  But "a very hip in it's time 7-11 commercial"? I'm tempted to say "there's no such animal", but we'll see.  Anti-Nixon Slurpees, perhaps? "Bring the Boys Home" Burritos?

VHM Mr Mojo Risin', which of course is an anagram for Jim Morrison.

Of course, so is JIM SIR MORON.

Just occurred to me--when was the last time we had two early 70s (pre-76) sets back to back? Quite awhile I'm guessing.

Bosses must be out early for the holiday.

I was hoping that the "phone call form the president" was going to be LBJ calling Thurgood Marshall, and we'd be in for 1965.

...but as soon as Don Pardo said 1971, I guessed it'd be this one.
