Any one else wonder why the web site's top banner has all the post-64 photos for a class of 64?

Interesting point. Sound of Silence from 1965. Man on the moon 1969, Woodstock 1969, Looks to be a late sixties Mustang. May or may not be able to change the icons,as it is probably a canned program.

What would be some good visual icons from 1964? 1964 GTO?

While these things didn't all happen in '64, but we did... kind'a, sort'a. 

We burst out on the world, looked around and started making some changes.  I can see a couple of things in that banner that we might have influenced. 

And hey, Baby Boomers are still a powerful force for change. 

Oh, the Ford Mustang... think the first one was in '64 or was it '65.  Well, someone planned it in '64... LOL.  The 1966 Mustang was my first brand new car.  I was living on poor, and I mean poor, wages working for the government in DC.  Drove that little car for about 12 years, how I loved it.

Yes it was a 1964 Mustang.  At the time my dad was selling Fords for Southgate Ford.  He called it a 64 1/2 Mustang.  Never understood the 1/2 part, but I believed him.  It was early into 1965 when I bought one of the 64 1/2  Ford Mustangs.  I also was working my first job and was making a whooping 350.00 a month.  The Mustang was baby blue with white appolstery, and I coughed up enough money for rims and baby moons for it.  I LOVED that car.  My dad felt it such a classy car that he thought a miniature poodle would look nice in it, so he bought me one.  Eventually my Mom kept the dog, and I kept the car.  Still the 1/2 part is a mystery.  If we can get Bruce Minella on here he could probably straighten it out.  His dad owned Southgate at the time, when my dad worked there.
