I have been long fascinated with news intros, yet I haven't seen many foreign intros.
I stumbled upon a collection of news intros from 1985. I couldn't get over how trippy many of them were, especially Guatemala's (a sensory journey in itself).

| What changed? The Civil Rights Act of 1964. Suddenly (back then, anyway) people discovered that they could say "No" to being told to give up their bus seat, that they did not have to say anything to the cops, that "Due Process" was no longer a whites-only privilege, and that i... |

Why would people not have a problem with them in the 70s, but now they're a problem?

Then, along came "Disco Duck" and ruined everything.
Remember Rick Dees' talk show in the early 90s? |

| It depends on the wind patterns. I don't know what part of CO you're in, but if a front is blowing through (usually from NW to SE) any fire from the northern Rockies, the Pacific Northwest, or the Black Hills of South Dakota would affect you. You would not be affected as much from fires from points ... |

I am more focused on whether they have the same interests, than them being a certain age.
Both of my previous relationships were with people within 2 years of me.
But I would not rule out someone in their 20s or 30s if they had the same interests. |
