More stuff about the college class of 2012 that was sent to me by my friend, Rick.
-The young people who are starting college this year were born in 1989.
-They are too young to remember the space shuttle blowing up.
-Their lifetime has always included AIDS.
-Bottle caps have always been screw off and plastic.
-The CD was introduced the year they were born.
-They have always had an Answering Machine
-They have always had cable.
-They cannot fathom not having a remote control.
-Popcorn has always been cooked in the microwave.
-They never took a swim and thought about Jaws.
-They can't imagine what hard contact lenses are.
-They don't know who Mork was or where he was from.
-They do not care who shot J. R. And have no idea who J. R. even is.
-They don't have a clue how to use a typewriter.
I think I am actually starting to feel sorry for those entering college this year!
I'm better than I deserve! ><>
