re: Best memories from station wagons and conversion vans?
Posted by PacoPicopiedra on 5/14/26 at 9:18 pm to CatsGoneWild
When I was a kid in the 70's my parents had one of these tanks, exact same year model, exact same color.
On long trips from Texas to Georgia to visit family my dad would put the back seats down and slide a twin mattress in there for me and my brother to rest/sleep on as we traveled. My memories are of laying on that mattress, feeling the rhythm of the road beneath me and listening to Top 40 AM radio the whole way while while my parents smoked like chimneys up front.
Thing was so long that Mom would make a joke when we crossed a state line that they were in one state while my brother and I were still in the other state.
Then they bought this during the energy crisis. Sucker had no room at all.

I know it's electronic and electronic usually sort of pumps up the listener, but there's something about this band's music that just calms me down after a stressful day at work (I work as a special ed. teacher with children who have serious behavior problems).
Not sure why, but maybe it's just the repetition and atmosphere of a lot of their songs. Whatever it is, I feel peacefulness when I listen to them.

This. When I was a kid going to a Catholic elementary school we had a brother and sister who attended that were from an Indian Hindu family.
Their parents came up to the school once to complain that their children were being served hamburgers in the cafeteria for lunch.
The nuns who ran the school basically told them to bring their own lunch if they didn't like it. We joked with the Indian kids that we didn't think there was any beef in the burgers anyway so they should be OK.

I spent a lot of time there as a child at my grandparent's house. West End is not bad. The rest of the city is a dump. What growth there is seems to be towards Lumberton.

Although Sting alludes to other pieces of literature in regards to the lyrics, he has mentioned "The Executioner's Song", and Gary Gilmore as the main inspiration.
