Woodstock's 50th

It’s the 50th anniversary of Woodstock  For some reason many people assume I was there.  The closest I came was in the New York Port Authority bus terminal seeing these incredibly muddy people on their way home from the event.  I was commuting from New Jersey to the U.N. doing research for my dissertation.  I had a wife and child in State College.  I was a responsible person.


And yes, I wish I had gone.  It would have been worth the trip just to hear Jimi Hendrix play the “Star Spangled Banner.”
