“My son will complain that the special effects must be from the 80s if the quality isn’t that great. “

The TV station run by USF showed silent movies on Saturdays. I was fascinated. I’ve probably seen more Buster Keaton and Charlie Chaplin than people in the ‘20’s did. Were they hokey? By today’s standards, sure. But I can see it trough the eyes of some farm kid who came into town and blew an entire dime on a matinee, drink, popcorn and a box of candy.

Wow. Exactly.

I seriously wonder if all of this modern technology is good for us. I often wonder what I did without it when I was growing up. I was happy and a lot less stressed.

It has to be especially hard on kids.
