The nightly yelling began.

It started at around 6:30 pm every night.

I don't think it ended until I came home for a long weekend from University in 1993. My father was in a hell of Reagan Bush making for 12 years.

Ahhh - the joys of being in a home with a black father in the 1980s.

Good times. Good times.
