1977

First of all, for all you newcomers, 1977 was an actual year. It occurred back in the last century. Some important stuff occurred in 1977: Elvis Presley died, the first of what appears to be an endless string of Star Wars movies debuted, and Farrah Fawcett was a blonde goddess. Also, in the spring of that year, I started working as an apprentice electrician.

Mind you, I am not equating my beginning an apprenticeship with the debut of Star Wars, but I will say this: 1977 sure was a long time ago, and Farrah Fawcett was pretty hot for not being Salma Hayek.
