I was in high school from 1968 to 1972. CERTAIN I would be drafted and go to Viet Nam after school. I lucked out in that my draft lottery number was 49. They classified me 1A, then revised it to 1H for Holding - they stopped drafting just before they would have gotten me.

Sometimes I watch reruns of the "Mannix" tv show just to see L.A. in that era. It was filmed all over here. I see the stores, signs, billboards and especially the cars and trucks of my younger years. So near but so far too. PS: The stories are pretty lame but I still enjoy it.
