  • Some personal thoughts on the 1960s and Convention
    Mar 7 2026

    How did John F Kennedy toss out the convention for presidents down the road? And what about my first flight in 1963 and today's flight from Sydney? And of course, Michael Caton in The Castle. https://bit.ly/hesdreamin

    Some random thoughts that actually do dovetail.
