GASP!!! The Beatles? How dare you?!
I think it's a two way street. Each side needs to understand the other and meet in the middle. The party can't move forward if it doesn't embrace the younger generation or those that tend to be a little less 'conventional.'
Here's what I think: As we go through our youth, we're experimental and more exposed to 'uncouth' behaviour. But as we get older and we get set in our ways, some people start to become close-minded and can't accept that others don't fit into our little cookie cutter personality.
Why is it so difficult to understand that some people have a sense of humor that shouldn't be displayed on Sesame Street? And that's exactly why Laura Bush didn't tell those jokes to Big Bird and Elmo.
I'm not sure if I'm making complete sense. The brain is boggled with finals.
You made complete sense -- and you are wise beyond your years.
These last few months, starting, at least for me, with the Kidd Rock threads, have been a real eye opener to a majority of us.
I think you'll find that a lot of people are moving to the middle (and will be villified for it), but that is truly where the strength of this country lies -- and where the difference will be made.
Keep up the great work. You can keep teaching us new things, but, FGS, PLEASE get them to lighten up on the Boomers.....LOL.
