I was born in 1953 in Roswell NM. Yes, I have heard most/all of the alien jokes….
Father owned a sporting goods store in downtown. Hunting fishing and archery goods. Dad taught me his work ethic and how to think, figure things out and how to work with my hands. The bank president would bring his sack lunch and eat lunch with my Dad most days. Everyone knew everyone and other parents were not afraid to swat your bottom if you messed up and your parents knew about it before you could get home. Not enough kids growing up in that atmosphere anymore.
