    Those were confusing times for college students! The big excitement during that time was having the elevator falling in my dorm - shook the whole 10 story building!

    Don't forget the deflowering of Vestal Virgins. Those were the days. :)

    Reflowering Vestal Whores was a pastime as well during those days too. It worked pretty much the same as the deflowering "thing" but involved a serious relationship.

    I don't recall the year but you reminded me of a particularly frustrating time in Philly history. 1980 All four major teams, Eagles, 76ers, Flyers, and the Phillies all made the championship games, the Phils were the only ones to actually win. UGH!
