  1. There’s a lot of 40s flying around. And I’m not just talking about the ones with the pop-top. Forty years ago, and a forty hour week, there was a peak. We have never returned to those halcyon days, and likely never will again. (Love it when I get to use a word like halcyon)

    Didn’t need no Welfare states
    Everybody pulled his weight
    gee our old LaSalle ran great
    Those were the days

    And you knew who you were then
    Girls were girls and men were men
    Mister, we could use a man like Herbert Hoover again

    People seemed to be content
    $50 paid the rent
    Freaks were in a circus tent
    Those were the days
