Cyndi Lauper – Time After Time
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
This was very big at the time and the video release was nicely done. (for that sorta ‘thing, at that sorta time. I get blow-back for this, but I would maintain that some MTV videos from the early period, are indeed, “Art.” And this is closer than some.)

It was a fun mixture of theater and song and very relatable — she could belt out a tune. Contrast her with that weirdo Madonna from the same era.
This is so weird.
I have always liked Cyndi Lauper. She even did a nice Christmas album.
The weird part is I just realized my ex looks just like her.
