Well it's the time of year when the kids get ready to go back to school and their parents descend en mass like locusts, to pilfer and pillage the shelves of the local Walmart leaving nothing but expired meat and a book of Koren crossword puzzles for the latecomers.
There probably was more in stock after Katrina hit, then after a round of back to school shoppers. What the hell is all the fuss about? School has been starting up in September for generations. Now at the expense of sounding like a grizzled veteran of the Korean war - in my day, back to school meant getting a binder, paper and pens that is it. It was not necessary to get a lap top, printer, blackberry or even a calculator. Yessum we did our 'rhithmetic in our heads. Least until high school then it just got confusing for me...
You can't tell me that kids today are that much smarter then we where. Take a look at your neighbors kids - do they seem to be mentally gifted? Are they constructing a fusion reactor in their backyard? They're not? Oh I see they're inside on the internet. Don't try to tell me that they are studying either - they are surfing porn. Somethings never change.
Kids they are the future -- AHHHH - with a diet of porn and reality TV through their formative years we're doomed when they get into a position of power.
Are you frightened now? I'm on Humor Blogs.com and they make me a little uneasy.
