I stumbled across this on the interwebs. Man, this brings back some memories. Back in the day when I was a kid, I remember sneaking to the living room after my parents went to bed and watching TV until they stopped broadcasting. Yes, back then they would stop broadcasting and call it a night. This was the network’s sign off.
Anyway, the last thing they would show is the little video and poem called High Flight. I didn’t get why they would show it at the time, but I knew as soons as that jet got airborne it was time to go back to bed. Anyway, brings back some memories.
I don’t know what the Dr. Phil crap is at the end of the video. But I don’t remember the good doctor being around those days.

Wow… what a cool blast from the past! You’re lucky… my room was too close to my parents’ room, and they slept too lightly for me to get up and watch TV. I had to resort to reading books in bed.
I can’t see the video!!! Nevertheless, I had cable. You don’t even want to know what I watched late at night. >:-)
