@chris - I can’t take the summers out here anymore either, at least for more than a week at a time. I don’t mind it as long as there is a way of keeping cool during the day. At night it cools down nicely to the 60s, which is great. But how was it possible that I rode my bike around in 98 degree heat all summer as a kid without dying repeatedly?

But Irwin, we all know that hippies don't need to be Manson Family dirtbags for you to enjoy seeing them getting kicked around, because (armchair psychology alert!) you hate your own previous idealistic hippie self or something, before you were converted to the Good Word of the Free Market.

That said, sometimes those worthless hippies really do deserve it!

A 30-something dude told me he had seen the new Tarantino film. I said "Oh, I read that it takes place at the same time as the Manson murders." He had no idea what I was talking about. I guess that horrific event looms larger in the late-Boomer psyche.

I think that's not the full story, Rev. As I understand it, another label wanted to sign the Beatles after they had recorded under contract for Kaempfert as Tony Sheridan's backing band. BK made certain Sheridan's label would not interfere with the Beatles being signed away. So he did them a huge favor.
