Miss about the 70's? Micro-mini skirts, womens jeans that had no back pockets, & tube tops. I may have been born in '63, but I sure did appreciate those trends

. Now I would be called a pervy kid, back then I was just an ordinary boy, who enjoyed "window shopping". (Wouldn't have had a flipping clue what to do if one of those high school girls I drooled over all the time actually gave me, a lowly grade school kid, the time of day though

.)

Does anyone remember walking around with your Goody comb sticking out of your back jeans pocket?

My sister had rows of those in her room! Everybody had a Goody comb I think as well.

My health, endurance and strength. Wow, drooling at just the thought of being that age again!

I'll see you and raise you.... I went to a Partridge Family concert!

I miss feathering my hair at least 10 times on each side ...then coating it like a shield with hair spray

It's just the whole vibe I miss.

I think you can still get that vibe now.
But it was effortless back then...not so much now.

Amen.
The 70's were splendid for me, but sometimes I wonder how I survived them.
