1962 .. that long ago?
Today is my birthday. I was born in 1962 which makes me feel a bit old. That's the year of the Cuba Missle Crisis and the year that Pope John 23 excommunicated Fidel Castro. Jackie Kennedy gave a tour of the White House, and President Kennedy spoke at Yale. The Beatles produced their first record, and the Stones had their London debut.
Adolph Eichman was hanged in Israel, and the slippery slope began when prayer in public schools was declared unconstitutional. Moon River was song of the year, and a postage stamp cost only 4 cents.
Other important people were born in 1962, i.e., Jon Bon Jovi, Garth Brooks, Rosie O'Donnell, Tom Cruise, Wesley Snipes and Demi Moore. Marily Monroe died.
John Glenn orbited the earth; Johnny Carson took over the Tonight Show and pantyhose was sold for the first time in the USA.
My, how time has flown. :) Happy birthday to me...

Happy Birthday John!
There were some funny songs out in 62 like Pepino the Italian Mouse. :)
Pepino, The Italian Mouse
Lou Monte
Pepino, oh, you little mouse
Oh, won't you go away
Find yourself another house to run around and play
You scare my girl, you eat my cheese, you even drink my wine
I try so hard to catch you but you trick me all the time
Cesta no surecillo a basoccella dinda mur
Ogna sere quella esce quanda casa scura
Endo dindo la cucina balla sulasu
A parrano malandrino pura un gabo sapaur
Pepino suracill ana parta scubari
Managa suracill a casa ma dai
Stasira da cucina nu poco di vino ci au lasciar
A quando si briaggo a Pepino giong apa
The other night
I called my girl
I asked her could we meet
I said let's go to my house
We could have a bite to eat
And as we walked in through the door
she screamed at what she saw
There was little Pepino
Doin' the cha, cha on the floor
Pepino suracill ana parta scubari
Managa suracill a casa ma dai
Stasira da cucina nu poco di vino ci au lasciar
A quando si briaggo a Pepino giong apa
Quella non ci piace u formaggio American
Quella va trova no poca Parmesan
La fatto ghiata ghiat gusto ena cor
Quando cella camina para probino caladur
Pepino suracill ana parta scubari
Managa suracill a casa ma dai
Stasira da cucina nu poco di vino ci au lasciar
A quando si briaggo a Pepino giong apa. :)

Oh John you're such a youngster. 1962 is a year that I will always remember but knowing you were born on that year makes it seem so much better, I am very grateful for you.
Happy Birthday!!
