kids today

[PC]

I'm continually impressed with young people these days.

Yesterday, I was having dinner at a local burger place. The young lady working the counter and expediting orders was cheerful, friendly and efficient.

I was wearing my Black Knight t-shirt (it's just a flesh wound) and when she saw it she laughed and said it was her favorite movie, ever.

The future is in good hands.

It's good when you encounter a kid who has good taste, I had a student just a day or two ago reference The Evil Dead II in class.

And I had a student just a few days ago, who referenced Marcus Aurelius.

Meditations, Book 2, first entry. And it still applies today.

Marcus Aurelius? Wasn't that a car made by Lancia?

"Marcus Aurelius? Wasn't that a car made by Lancia?"
:lol:

Tom, Sadly, very few of my kids know who Marcus Aurelius was.

Everything we hear is an opinion, not fact.
Everything we see is a perspective, not the truth.

Yes! :thumbsup:

And one of my favorites:

When you wake up in the morning, remember you'll be dealing with the busy-body, the ungrateful, the arrogant, the deceitful, the envious, the unsocial ... But it's not their fault, and we must all work together.
