Talking about My Generation...

The next generation is growing up with insane tools to disseminate and digest information...we are so primitive in comparison but that's how it always works...I always felt like the people I grew up were in a generation lost in space...the one's that proceeded us had the acute ideological battles of the 60's to define them, whether they were liberal or conservative...by the time we reached maturity there was none of that passion...the freedoms that we took so much for granted were handed to us...you know, like dope smoking, pre-marital sex, rock n' roll...we didn't have to fight for it all...there was peace and good jobs abounding...we were the crew that put Reagan in power...

And we are nothing like that is coming today...although we have stayed alive to play around with these toys are consciousness are radically different than the youth of today who grow up with broadband, social networking, digital music, cell phones...it is night and day from where we were...
