  1. wow I was born in 1957 too. but, I think some of this information is incorrect.

    Because I remember very clearly that JFK was assinated in 1964 and then there was LBJ.

    Gerald ford might have been a senator but I do believe that Eisenhower was the president.

    Now I don't have to play because we're both the same year!!

    TY:-)))

  2. I'm sorry Shinade, but I do think you read the date wrong. It's not 1957 but 1975. ;) I am 32 years old. That would be why it didn't seem right :)

  3. If you asked my daughter, she'd say the year I was born (1970) was when the dinosaurs went extinct.

    You have a great blog & I've nominated you for an award at my blog. Enjoy & keep up the great work.

  8. Do you use blogspot? It probably is pretty similar to here even if you don't. On here I just type the name of the site...then I highlight what I typed, click the picture at the top of the screen I'm typing on that I believe resembles a globe with a paper clip. haha Or so I think. If you hover over the little icons at the top you'll see it says insert link. You click it, a screen pops up, copy and paste the link from the page you want to link to. That's it :)
