A very self-important college freshman at a recent football game,
took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next to him
why it was impossible for the older generation to understand his own.
"You grew up in a different, actually almost primitive, world," the
student said loud enough for the whole crowd to hear. "We young
people today grew up with television, jet planes, space travel, man walking
on the moon, our spaceships have visited Mars...We even have nuclear
energy, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with light-speed
processing .and uh.."
Taking advantage of a pause for breath in the student's litany, the
"wizened" one said, "You're right, Son. We didn't have those things
when we were young........so we invented them...... you arrogant
little s#*# head!! Now......what are you doing for the next generation??"
I love senior citizens
Thanks Bev. V.
