Thought of the Day

And for today's teens, watching video of Woodstock and anti war protests is like us as kids watching WW1 documentaries on PBS. So far in the past it held little relevance outside of grandpa and grandma living through the period..
 
I don't think today's teens watched Woodstock or anti war protests. I think in 52 yrs they never taught it or showed it in the last 20. Maybe Iraq but never heard of protests. Except the present. I went into the Marines in '69-'75 never knew anything until I put on the uniform. No real tv broadcasts and Mom hoarded the black and white tv.

I'm just saying that if they did it would be ancient history to them like WW1 was to teens in the 70s. They're too busy these days watching cat videos for ancient history anyway...
 
It is amazing that we did not have tv, portable phones, transportation was bikes or walk and we survived. Now they call us ancient history.
 
I carried mail to a school n my route. Saw the packets of resumes going to the school and the atrocious spelling just on the envelopes. The principal and I went to grade and high school together, he said when he saw the envelopes half went to trash just for the spelling.

Not surprised.
