I agree. More innocent, but not as innocent as you would be led to believe. Go back a little further to the '30s for instance. Prohibition, bathtub rum, speakeasies and gangsters. The Valentine Day's massacre. I've got a newspaper from 1929 I think it is showing where my grandfather, (separated from my grandmother, they were planning on divorcing,) ran his Ford into a bridge abutment and was killed instantly. In the same paper is a story about some fellow killing his girlfriend/wife (don't remember exactly, haven't read it in a while) and burying her in a shallow grave on his property. Also if this grandma was born in 1946, that means that she would be 20 in 1966? What does that bring to mind!

I guessed it right!
My Mum is arround that age and I love to hear about how things have changed and what her childhood was like!


Only thing is, I wouldn't say that my Mum was old enough to be a grandma!
Grandma to her Grandkitties, but that's it!
