for Luckie Daye,

1968: a very, very tumultuous year

Prague Spring in Czechoslovakia - Dubček introduces liberalization, a taste of freedom, before 200 000 Soviet and Warsaw Pact troops and 5 000 tanks invade that August.

Tet Offensive in Vietnam as North Vietnamese unexpectedly launches a major attack on South Vietnam. A couple months later the My Lai massacre by US forces against civilians and the increasingly brutal South Vietnamese government cripples public support for the war in the US.

'Rowan & Martin's Laugh-In' debuts - 13 year old boys everywhere develop overnight crushes on Goldie Hawn in her go-go boots.

Hello, Neighbor. In the US, PBS premiers 'Mister Roger's Neighborhood'. Years later lonely men in cardigan sweaters would entice little children to "make-believe land" with promises to meet good King Friday if they just come home with them to, uhh, feed the gold fish.

I'm Andy Rooney, and I'm a grumpy old man even in 1968. '60 Minutes' debutes on CBS in the US.

Mauritius achieves independence from Britain, Nauru attains independence from Australia. Swaziland also becomes independent. Equatorial Guinea achieves independence from Spain. Americans don't bother to update their maps because no one can locate any of them anyway.

2001: A Space Odyssey premiers. 6 hours later, Americans are afraid their toaster ovens will talk to them and try to kill them. "Dave, I wouldn't spread the butter, Dave.."

A B-52 Stratofortress bomber crashes in Greenland, releasing 4 nuclear bombs that are never recovered. All four citizens of Greenland protest.

The Fourth Republic nearly falls as students and workers in France go on strike and nearly bring down the government.

Robert F Kennedy, the clear favorite in the Democratic Primary is assassinated, Hubert Humphries tries but America is somber and tired of turmoil - they elect Richard Millhouse Nixon as president.

Martin Luther King, Jr. is assassinated in Memphis, riots follow.

Canadians elect Pierre Trudeau - he holds the country together despite strong seperatism and nationalism from Quebec and decentralization from the Western provinces. Makes Canada officially bilingual. Sans rancune Anglophones!

North Korea seizes the USS Pueblo, claiming it was spying. US sailors insist they paid extra credits to voyeur.

After a coup d'etat, Saddam Hussein assumes Vice Chairmen of the Revolutionary Council. Names his mustache Minister of Masculinity.

The US drops the Gold Standard, now all dollars are backed by "In God We Trust". Athiests may however use Monopoly money if they wish. Haha, I'm rolling in it!

Across the US students at Universities take over administrative buildings, hold lock-ins and clash with police - chiefly over the Selective Service draft. In Maryland some "draft dodgers" burn Selective Service records with Napalm in protest.

A border war emerges between Israel and Jordan

Gooooooaaaaaal! Italy wins the Euro Championship! Elsewhere in Argentina, a stampede at a stadium kills 74, wounds 150.

Republicans put Spiro Agnew on the ticket. English majors everywhere giggle making anagrams of his name. Jumble the letters and you get: Raw Pigeons... A Penis Grow... A Owners Pig... I Spew Organ... I Wage Porns... I Rape Gowns... among others. Conspiracy theorists have a ball.

France explodes its first Hydrogen bomb. A French Submarine sinks in the Mediterranean killing all on board, as does an Israeli submarine in the Mediterranean only two days prior. A US submarine later sinks near the Azores. Not a good year to live on a yellow submarine...

Tlateltoco Massacre in Mexico City prior to the Olympics, somewhere between the official count of 30 and 300 students die in clashes with the police.

Revolutionaries take hold in Peru, the military takes over Panama in a coup d'etat.

The Troubles - a period of violent conflict between police, paramilitaries, and often civilians, begins in Northern Ireland. Sunday Bloody Sunday..

The Rodney Riots shock the streets of Kingston, Jamaica.

The Zodiac Killer emerged to terrorize San Francisco and environs.

The US carpetbombs Laos, a neutral country, as it is believed North Vietnamese are using the Ho-Chi-Minh trail through Laos to infiltrate South Vietnam.

Yale University announces it will now admit women. College parties get waaaaay cooler.

Brazil initiates a military dictatorship, effectively ending democracy there.

Rhodesia continues to wage its Bush War, Namibia battles throughout the year for independence and in North Yemen there is civil war.


....

Despite all of this unrest Luckie Daye's parents manage to predate the summer of love and get busy getting busy, as she'd be born that year. Also popping out hot n' fresh in 1968:

LL Cool J. As he emerged from the womb he licked his lips and told the doctor, "Mamma said Knock You Out"

Mary Lou Retten: she somersaulted out of the womb, did a triple back flip and would have landed on her feet but slipped on the umbilical cord. An unimpressed French nurse gave her a 9.75, otherwise perfect 10s across the board.

Cuba Gooding, Jr. was born, yelling, "Shooooow Meeeeee Mom's Booooobies!" (Jerry McGuire reference... nevermind...)

Gary "What 'choo Talkin' 'Bout, Willis?" Coleman was born

Will Smith popped out in 68, he'd go on to break it down with DJ Jazzy Jeff and then save the world about eighteen times in Hollywood blockbusters.

Molly Ringwald was Pretty in Pink Placental Crap as a fellow 68'er

The new Mr. Bond version 5.0, Daniel Craig, was born. Nurses swooned.

Quebec would give us C�line Dion, though they've yet to apologize for it.

Lisa Loeb and Sara McLachlan were also born that year, as was Australian super sexy singer Kylie Minogue.

Stop. Collaborate. Then listen. Vanilla Ice shot out from betweenst his mother's thighs, all attitude and 28 inches of hair gel.

Jamaican rapper/hip hop artist/whatever he sings, Shaggy was born that year, and has been singing/talking/croaking lyrics from the back of his throat ever since.

Ol' Dirty Bastard was born. For the record, the labor was really one hell of an event, his mom didn't mess around either, as soon as the clerk came in to record the baby's name, she told him, "Oh hell no, You'se an Ol' Dirty Bastard. Fuck you you little prick, that's your name now". True story. Ish.

Actor Owen Wilson was born, and evidently broke his nose sixteen times en route through the birth canal passage...

Other notable Hollywood births included
Lucy Liu
Edward Burns
Margaret Cho
Parker Posey
Naomi Watts
Jim Caviezel
Billy Boyd
Debra Messing
Rachael Ray
Eric Bana
Kristin Chenoweth
Stan Kirsch
Michael Weatherly
Peter Paige
Yasmine Bleeth
Ashley Judd
Anthony Michael Hall
Patricia Arquette
Jeri Ryan
Kelly Hu

And Adult Actresses/Porn stars Traci Lords and Jamie Summers came out, decidedly without 68GG breasts at the time.

In Sports, the Cincinnati Bengals were founded, the Green Bay Packers won Super Bowl II, the Winter Olympics were held in Grenoble, France and the Summer Olympics in Mexico City (in Autumn of that year). Italy beat Yugoslavia for the European Championship, Manchester United win the UEFA Cup, Alec Rose of England completes a solo yachting trip around the world in under one year. The London Marleybone Cricket Club South Africa tour is cancelled when South Africans refuse to accept the sole black player. The Detroit Tigers defeat the St. Louis Cardinals 4 games to 3 in the World Series, while television viewers rise in an uproar when NBC discontinues the last minutes of a dramatic football game between the Oakland Raiders and New York Jets to show a scheduled re-run of "Heidi". Toe Blake's Montreal Canadiens sweep Scotty Bowman's St. Louis Blues in 4 games for Lord Stanley's Cup that spring, while the Boston Celtics quiet the Los Angeles Lakers in Game 6 to take the championship.

Notable deaths that year included Robert F Kennedy, Martin Luther King Jr, Upton Sinclair, John Steinbeck, Cosmonaut Yuri Gurgarin, and Helen Keller.

Despite all of this unrest Luckie Daye's parents manage to predate the summer of love and get busy getting busy, as she'd be born that year. Also popping out hot n' fresh in 1968:

LL Cool J. As he emerged from the womb he licked his lips and told the doctor, "Mamma said Knock You Out"

Mary Lou Retten: she somersaulted out of the womb, did a triple back flip and would have landed on her feet but slipped on the umbilical cord. An unimpressed French nurse gave her a 9.75, otherwise perfect 10s across the board.

Cuba Gooding, Jr. was born, yelling, "Shooooow Meeeeee Mom's Booooobies!" (Jerry McGuire reference... nevermind...)

Gary "What 'choo Talkin' 'Bout, Willis?" Coleman was born

Will Smith popped out in 68, he'd go on to break it down with DJ Jazzy Jeff and then save the world about eighteen times in Hollywood blockbusters.

Molly Ringwald was Pretty in Pink Placental Crap as a fellow 68'er
