March 16, 1975

I look at the Family Circus pretty much every day in 2022, and one thing I notice relative to seeing it from time to time in 1975 ...

16 Mar 1975, Sun The Miami Herald (Miami, Florida) Newspapers.com 

... is that the parents don't rage at their children nearly as often now as they did then.

The Freakin' Weekend (1970)

I was ready for a long weekend.

The Kentucky New Era isn't publishing July 4, 1970, so they gave us a fantastic, expanded TV grid in the Friday, July 3, paper.

Congratulations to the Reeds.

That Saturday-afternoon tennis program on NBC is a wrap-up of the Wimbledon finals, but I'm going to be watching the Firecracker 400 on ABC's Wide World of Sports.

And, of course, I'm very excited to see what CBS shows on this Sunday afternoon's episode of NFL Action.

Did you see that Morgana, the Kissing Bandit, is from Louisville?

Happy Independence Day, all.
