I regret the pain of the black hand, yet this still dances. Wuthering Heights, though--now there's a dangerous trip. Be sure to crank up Kate Bush somewhere during your read.

Being of a certain number of years, sometimes I'm reminded of the fact that certain food that's easy to find now, it simply didn't exist in the generic white bread world when I was a kid. Gyros sandwiches are one of these things.

Other examples: Croissants. Yogurt. Even bagels. 1970, if we were aware of them at all, they were the stuff of foreign countries or urban ethnic neighborhoods. By 1980, they're staples.
