   The last generation to grow up was the generation of my parents during WWII. They must be so sad to see this country that they sacrificed all for; and how history repeats itself by allowing tyrants to once again walk the earth, spewing lies and murdering innocents.

   This is timely considering the welcome mat today to Ahmadinejad at Columbia—where the “counter-culture” applauded this murdering propagandist. A-jad’s lies are so transparent except for those he panders to, who now say,”See, he is a good guy! He doesn’t want nukes!”

   Code Pink,Moveon.morons, Boobs for Bombs,mothers who dress like their teens, etc. are examples of immaturity and lack of thought processes.

   Maturity stopped in the mid-sixties for many people, especially Democrats who deny radical Islam wanting peace and love.

   Great interview Michelle, I’m looking forward to part 2.

   The topic is very interesting. Viewing through a very wide angle lens, is there a trend detectable in this sort of human behavior (i.e. is this something that happens every other generation or every third generation or are we witnessing something unique)?

   …and speaking of grown ups, we miss your comments and wisdom on the Factor! Hope you will be back in the saddle soon.

   One reason I’m still single (among many) is that I don’t want to grow up. I’ll never grow up. Life is more fun as a kid.

   My theory on flip-flops is that as we transfer our wealth to China through trade, they can afford cars while more and more of us get around on bicycles and flip-flops.

   I remember when I was younger, when one went out to a restaurant, even on vacation, a coat and tie was proper. For years, when I traveled, I always had a coat and tie in the luggage. Now, I leave them at home. Even at the nice places, you see very casual dress. Funny…some restaurants have signs requiring shirts and shoes now. My wife and I were just talking about that a week ago (on vacation). Times have changed, and not always for the better.

   “Old Fashion” Manners Were A Healthy & Bright Tonic For Life

   I always remember my grandmother ruing the post-1960’s world, recalling when graces and manners were the “spice of life.” Now that they’re almost gone, you hear from jaded people — even children saying about life “Is this all there is?” and “Been there done that” along with this dismaying fascination with death and violence and darkness among young people. People used to laugh at civility and courtesy in old movies, yet that’s the very medicine we need to brighten our lives.

   We’re married 54 years, raised a large family (w/severely retarded child now 43) and know rebellion is part of growing up. If I could point to one change, it might be that learning and everything else was supposed to be fun, fun, fun, 24/7. Learning is hard work and, trust me, you never stop learning and often those lessons are painful.

   Heads up to news media: Adults do not give a damn about the drunk, exhibionist amoral girls Hollywood created for $$$$.

    Only grownups can face the threat of nuclear-armed Islamist states, and terrorism. Adolescents pretend that bad things can’t or don’t happen, they feel invincible. They are reckless and dismissive of danger. Remind you of any group of people?

    None of this can bode well for the future.
