[QUOTE="ajblakejr, post: 749971, member: 18807"] Good Morning I was thinking about all the lists, keys, and knowledge, we study and memorize as UPSers. I don't remember the last time I sat down and read the entire Declaration of Independence. I do remember the 1976 celebration events. My class painted the fire hydrants around my grade school, red, white and blue. I don't have the first ten amendments to the United States Constitution memorized in order nor could I provided the number of the amendment I find important without running to the computer to look up. In fact, I was in a heated conversation with a coworker regarding term limits and they thought I was full of it. They believed that George Bush lost the last election and that is why everyone keeps blaming him for all that is "wrong". He firmly believes that the current President will be President for a long time, at least 12 - 16 years. I should not have had to run to the computer to prove him wrong. Maybe I am hypersensitive to history becoming lost and I am seeing it with people my age along with an entire generation following me. Just some random thoughts floating around in my cartoon brain this morning... as I look forward a cold Parrot Bay Cooler, grilled chicken and pistacho fluff. [/QUOTE]
