A great band played at my graduation. Called, "Sticks and Rocks". Cause that's what they played.

Fifty years ago this August I entered the first grade.

Fifty years ago this August I was dating a First Grade Teacher.  She kept me after school.  ::)

There are kids going to college who had not even been born when the Technoviking first appeared on Youtube.

The song 1979 by Smashing Pumpkins always made me feel old. Figured it was meant mainly for kids born in 1979 and since it came out in the mid-90s, they were teens then, but now they're almost 40 themselves.

YouTube started in 2005, so it's only 13 years old.

I'm pretty sure the Technoviking predates  YouTube by quite a while, of course.

It was written about Billy Corgan's experiences in 1979 when he was starting his teenage years
