2. A perfect visual
illustrating some bad jokes. This grabs my heart and just wrenches it.

4. look at the one I posted right above you. I've been looking for that cartoon

5. Oh, Alfredo. What have we wrought by not educating our people,
by keeping them stuck in min. wage jobs, 2 per parent in some families, which perpetuates this fallacy ...

How can any answers and any help to the young ones come from a family of people stuck in the bottom rung of the hierarchy of human needs, who are too tired and worn to find and understand a better way, and teach it to the children.
Yet,
they are being challenged, and valiantly try, to provide a moral and responsible example and to be the main teacher of how to intelligently and legally maneuver through their tricky lives.

This is finding me at a time when I am feeling despondent about the level of complacency and un-challenged ignorance around me, one of the greatest sins we have committed is to allow large groups to become dim-witted.

Until I'm better, I live under a rock.

8. OK then, you just made my night. What, me worry? Not after this.
:sarcasm:
But really, you have a good point. And it is accompanied by many statements through the ages of people worrying about the younger generation not measuring up. But I know you are aware that is not what I was saying.

9. Just don't give into dispair. Aging means loss of control
of the world around us. Those ignorant kids raised by absentee parents somehow do just fine.

10. Not sure. He can be rather provocative. This statement on our
skewed priorities is one of his better offerings.
