The last time was in 1969. My grandparents 50th wedding anniversary.
My folks 25th.
If I recall at that time gas was around 30 to 35 cents per gallon, certainly not over 40 cents. When I started driving a couple of years later the Texaco that we always used was at 34 cents for regular.

Unfortunately My Prodigal Son is Stranded in Olympia WA .
He was with a women and things did not work out , He is on the street with No Money , Cold & Hungry with No Car or Ride (As of the moment he does have a Phone)
Luke 15:11-32 The Prodigal Son
Sounds as if your son may be ready to "arise and go." And that you are welcoming him with open arms.
May God bless you both.
Coming up on February 16:
"The Sunday after the Sunday of the Publican and the Pharisee is the Sunday of the Prodigal Son. This parable of God’s forgiveness calls us to “come to ourselves” as did the prodigal son, to see ourselves as being “in a far country” far from the Father’s house, and to make the journey of return to God. We are given every assurance by the Master that our heavenly Father will receive us with joy and gladness. We must only “arise and go,” confessing our self-inflicted and sinful separation from that “home” where we truly belong (Luke 15:11-24)."

Prices are down somewhat...I'm seeing some regular at around $3.80/gallon.
Two years ago it was $7 around here. Some places in San Francisco were clise to $10.00

Has any Ruskie technology been pretty?
The Mosin-Nagant, Nagant revolver, Tokarev pistol, AK, SKS, and all of their autos are clunky, hard-lined and rough, but they work in horrible conditions and seem easy enough to manufacture.
I kind of like the looks of the SKS.
The Tupolev Tu-95, NATO code "Bear" is pretty sexy. So is the Tu-160 "White Swan," NATO code "Blackjack." Also the Tu-16, NATO code, "Badger."

That's something that I've noticed in older newsreel interviews with men from southern states, and depicted in movies from the '70s. Either high pitched, or low and gravely. Not much in between.
British news readers usually aren't bad, but their sports announcers can get very animated and annoying.
