ON THIS DAY...
May 5th, 1965
The Stones play Atlanta, Georgia. Back at the motel after the show, Mick is asked by the manageress to sign his autograph for one of the kitchen staff. Mick was shocked when she added, "It's alright, she's a white woman."
wow. makes you think, doesn't it? all the changes that have happened over our lifetimes (at least those of us who are.... gulp.....my age....).
and the stones have been there all along....

Things really haven't changed that much if you think about it.
Still, it's a funny little story  . |

The US has changed greatly. The blacks are running things in some sectors. As much as people from other countries who know NOTHING about America love to pontificate about our "race problem" the fact is that things have changed & it's other countries that need to look inward & start solving their own troubles. |

Sorry Joey. Trying to steer this thing away from the ugliness that is sure to follow. |

LOL I'll drop it! LBJ was the first Prez I remember having. |
|

| Angiegirl |
Um, Glenny? Who said anything about the US???! I sure as hell didn't. I just meant that the world in general hasn't changed so much for the better. Not everything is about the US!
And be nice to me when I'm not the one attacking anyone, coz I have the flu . |
|
|
| glencar |
Okay, mea culpa! I thought since the original event happened in the US that your point was the US still had problems. I hope you get over the flu as I just read you're expecting a baby & that could be a bad combo. I have the flu myself but am not expecting. |
|
|
| Angiegirl |
NO! I'm not pregnant! I meant expectancies I have of the Stones' quality! Lol, that's funny! Usually my English isn't that bad, but it's still not my native language, hehehe!
Besides, the anecdote could have happened everywhere, especially in those days.

Speaking of Stones, what is wrong with Keith's fingers? Is that
arthritis at the ends of his fingers? With all due respect to Keith,
I have never seen that before, just wondering if he is in any pain.
He looks very happy and enticing as usual. |
