There were good times though and now I'd love to live away from the city in a farmhouse (without the farming mind you  ).

Now an age of naivety I can relate to. I still remember the time as a young teenager, probably around thirteen, the phone rang in a phone booth and out of curiosity I answered. It was some girl on the other end who was all hot and bothered and full of explicit sex talk. Seductively, she asked me "How much you got?" (wink-wink!). I told her about 75 cents in quarters.
Yeah, I was very naive once, and in many ways, still am.
