Nineteen-seventy-two-DO
This is a DO for anyone who was born in 1972 or is friends with anyone on this forum who was born in 1972.
Of course, I'm friends with almost everyone here so that would mean a virtually open invitation.
Guests of honor will be the Nineteen-Seventy-Two babies...
... is this getting exclusive enough? Or does me allowing all my friends to come make it non-exclusive?
Inquiring minds want to know.

Hmmm.. it could be even more exclusive if you added a month requirement.

Great idea.
Maybe I should require an advance application submitted with two 5x7 glossy photos. That way I can decide how the DO photos will look before I pick who gets to come.

You were born in an election year,when Nixon as President ran for the Presidency.
I was also born in an election year when Nixon ran for the Presidency, though he was only Vice President when I was born.
Does that count for half-credit?

I am lucky I get to go to 3/4 of the events (as long as the 1/4 I give up is not alcohol, I am happy).

My first trip to Venice was in 1972. I conceived a child in 1972. ..not suggesting that the 2 events were necessarily related.
