Senior Moment

Posted: Feb 15, 08 9:51pm

A very self-important college freshman attending a recent football

game, took it upon himself to explain to a senior citizen sitting next

to him why it was impossible for the older generation to understand

his generation.

"You grew up in a different world, actually an almost primitive one,"

the student said, loud enough for many of those nearby to hear. "The

young people of today grew up with television, jet planes, space

travel, man walking on the moon, our

spaceships have visited Mars. We have

nuclear energ y, electric and hydrogen cars, computers with DSL, bsp;

light-speed processing .....and," pausing to take another drink of beer.

The Senior took advantage of the break in the student's litany and

said, "You're right, son. We didn't have those things when we were

young.....so we invented them. Now, you arrogant little shit,

what are you doing for the next generation?"

The applause was resounding...
