The Chicago Seven.

Right, Jim! World famous Yippies, arrested for trying to incide a riot at the Democratic National Convention. Of course, there were originally eight. Bobby Seale went ballistic in the courtroom and ended up bound, gagged, and evenutally severed from the others. Thus, the Chicago Seven. And people think the OJ trial was a circus.

Were you in Chicago when this went down?

I sure was. I was already working, so I didn't go down to Grant Park to get my head smashed by the police, but we all followed these bizarre developments religiously.

Just think, if you'd gone down there you might have ended up in this picture. :-P
