At this time in his life, I think Elvis was at his best. This song was widely regarded as the single that jump-started his career after his successful '68 Comeback Special. It was his eighteenth number-one single in the United States. Rolling Stone later ranked it #91 on their list of the 500 Greatest Songs of All Time. Not bad for a country boy from Mississippi.

Probably the earliest flight simulator ever made for kids and one of the greatest toys ever made! Made by the "Deluxe Reading" toy company in the early 1960's, and sold mainly in supermarkets. (You could also get them by mail-order from the old Spiegel catalog and other mail-order firms as well.) You controlled the steering with a yoke as your jet flew over moving terrain, (a rotating scenery cylinder,) controlling your airspeed as you lined up a "target," then fired (actual) rubber-tipped missiles by pulling the two missile-launching levers. Enough dials, levers, chrome and noise to delight any young fighter pilot! It was a blast knocking down my little green army men with the missiles! It used 4 'D' batteries.

This is a boxing clip from the 1975 Pan-American games in Mexico City. Cuba's greatest amateur boxer, Teofilo Stevenson, demolishes an outclassed Brazilian foe in heavyweight action. (A young Ray Leonard provides color commentary!)

Jean Balukas, generally regarded as the greatest female pool player of all time, appears on this 1966 episode of I've Got A Secret--when she was not quite seven years old. (Balukas won the U.S. Open women's title seven consecutive times from 1972 through 1978.) She gives an impressive display of her talents.

Another great show from ABC, which ran from 1981 to 1983, and starred William Katt, Robert Culp, and Connie Sellecca. I guess you could call it a superhero drama-comedy. I loved the theme song, and drove my kids crazy singing it all the time lol
