  1. I think it's so romantic that you are still happily married to your first boyfriend. And 1968 was a watershed year in American politics. You were part of an election that really changed the world!

  3. I can't believe Sybil died. And then Matthew died because the actor is on Broadway. It's starting to smell like the American soaps.... :)

  4. I'm with Harriet on the Downton Abbey!
    Love your answers, great glimpse into who you are.
    btw, my son who is 30 always argues with his friends that Jose's version of Light my Fire is just as good as the Doors...they think he's crazy, but I agree since I grew up listening to both.
