Another look at 1965. This year, Ted Nelson creates the word Hypertext to describe computer networking. The latest toy craze is the super ball. The war against smoking starts with TV cigarette ads banned in the UK and mandated health warnings required on cigarette packages. Harry Potter author J.K. Rowling is born, and I turn 7.

I've always enjoyed looking at old greeting cards, postcards,and photos at antique stores. This card is one of many that my parents returned to me as they were trying to declutter the family home recently. I'm glad they saved it. Looking at old cards is fun, but it's even more interesting when it's one that you received. Some are cute, and some are downright funny, usually in an unintentional way.
